What is this magnificent beast? 

It appears to be a 914 center section.

It's a Skoda silhouette body on a spaceframe chassis probably with a Chevy V8. Mick Hill in the UK raced a similar car.

I try to get a good picture of this EVERY time I drive by it!

 

Edit: that truck is south of State College on 322 next to the Harley Dealer

Tonite she came home and said, "Really, three trailers and 6 skidsteer attachments in the driveway. Why do you need all of this stuff and why do you leave it right there." She isn't wrong, but it's been a busy 2 weeks and I'm planning for a long weekend working around the house/property. She just doesn't get it. Can't say I really blame her!

In reply to RossD :

will effect the instruments in the early days 1980. Not sure why now, though. Probablye just a hold-over rule waiting to be updated.

The computers might not like them very much. Computers and magnets are not friends.

You beat me too it.  Thank you for correcting, I was shocked the forum got it wrong.

Specifically it was based on a 110R, here's a rally version.Skoda 110R by Shift

And people forget that Group B was just a set of rules, not specifically the fire breathing monsters most people think of.  Here's a later Skoda 130 LR Group B Rally car.  All 1290 cc 135hp of it.

I think I'm in love....

One of Nao Tomii's builds for this year's NAHBS that didn't happen. I love the details of how the custom bags matches the paint and the lines of the bike. Full details, worth looking at : https://theradavist.com/2020/05/tomii-cycles-showcase-kevins-gravel-packer/

BTW...I looked for the Grassroots Pedal Sports thread and couldn't find it anywhere? Not with Google, not with site search... Did it get deleted somehow or is my search-fu failing me?
