    The Del Rio car perfectly illustrates how the wheel sits at the edge of the wheel well. Removal of the bumpers really enhances the car's form.

    Here is a scan of the actual car in an 1969 article titled "Wild Thing". Published Automobile Quarterly 1969

    Maybe someone can post the words to the song - Wild Thing? I only know the first two lines!

    Here you go:

    Workin' all week, nine to five for my money
    So, the weekend comes, I go get live with the honey

    Rollin' down the street, saw this girl and she was pumpin'
    Winked my eye, got into the ride, went to a club was jumpin'...


    Oh, wait a minute. :D You probably meant this one:

    Wild thing
    You make my heart sing
    You make everything groovy
    Wild thing

    Wild thing, I think I love you
    But I wanna know for sure
    Come on and hold me tight
    I love you

    Wild thing
    You make my heart sing
    You make everything groovy
    Wild thing

    Wild thing, I think you move me
    But I wanna know for sure
    So c'mon and hold me tight
    You move me

    Wild thing
    You make my heart sing
    You make everything groovy
    Wild thing

    Wild thing
    C'mon, c'mon, wild thing
    Shake it, shake it, wild thing

    Funny!!!

    Wayne - I didn't know you were such a rock'n roller. That's before your time.

    We need audio.

    This has motivated me to take Wild Thing for a drive. I'm off!

    Hey, so are Italian sports cars from the 1950s and '60s.

    As for Wild Thing, I never was a huge fan of the Trogs' version, but this one rocked:
