Thanks for posting the link, the 'Frankeneliminator' does look like mine! 
Here's some earlier pics of the car as It did have at one stage its original bonnet and boot but no guards.
The seller gave me a better bonnet and boot lid (less rust) plus guards so I cant complain.
A quarter has come from some poor cougar so I guess its better / easier to replace the whole panel rather than cut n patch it.
I started stripping it down on the w/end and nasty surprise no 1 was the floors behind the seats look like the sunroof was left open for a few years! Isnt Arizona supposed to be a hot dry place?   (where bandits live)
Anyway, a whole new floor could be on the cards..

Thanks for posting the link to Sandys site, there sure were some crazeee "Horn" cars made.
The strip down of mine continues. Its a pretty easy job for me just pulling things apart, as the real talent is getting them back together   
Rust wise, the floors behind the front seats are shot but im hoping I can get away just with panels for these without doing whole floorpan.

The good news is that my car is on the Eliminator registry and it is most likely one of the HERTZ ordered cars. 
The speedo gear, sunroof combo and options is a bit of a giveaway. 
Im tracing some of the past owners history as well atm so might have something to say about that later.
The numbers on the block, buck tag and dash plate are all matching but I havnt found where the last 2 photos (sent from the previous owner) are located as yet? 
I havnt had the guards off yet either, but from other pics Ive been sent the plenums look good.
