Corvair-powered special?

Not Corvair powered.
I was also surprised what it actually is when I looked at the exhaust system...

Was it a six-cylinder motor?

Allemano

In fact I only know the make of the engine not the number of cylinders.

Looking at the manifold it could be well a six cylinder, but am not sure.

Allemano

I've googled a bit and reckon now that it's more likely a six cylinder.

Ok.  Was this car built and raced in the US?

Kaiser V-6?(Formerly known as the GM Crossfire)

But then, you never said the motor was American.

The engine is US-American, nut not by Kaiser.

How about a Continental flat 6?

How about the Lycoming Special driven by Ron Kessinger?
