Back in an era when GMH captured the public's imagination and it wallets we had style and real stylists. GMH built, designed, styled and sold cars that covered the whole range from sedans to amazing coupes and commercials. I was looking at the old 1969 Hurricane and caught this image on google and kept thinking what if we didn't go to the one trick pony show in 1978 and continued to offer style, variety and excitement. How different could have GMH been today if it didn't become stuck with the one box style with wheels (one model) rather than watch the company get flushed down the dunny and close up shop?

Stripes look wicked. And yes it does remind me of the McLaren. Actually very nice styling, it has aged quite well considering the only things changed are the spats and angle of the nose cone.
