Chevrolet Astro III. An experimental car, built in 1969. Engine - gas turbine with a capacity of 317 hp
02.
Two back "exhaust pipes" made an impressive diameter to ensure free flow of hot gases - an indispensable condition of the gas turbine (there could focus a la "Marilyn Monroe with her skirt inflationary" no prokanaet!)
In this photo Astro III without a nose cone. It becomes immediately clear that the car is made on a "tricycle". As clearly shown how to penetrate the interior.
Steering, in the conventional sense, no. Managed by «Astro» with two "sticks" (in quotes - because in 1969 such a concept did not exist yet)
