A Chaparral CanAm car, I believe? It does look a bit like one of those weird contraptions Edd China builds (he's the guy behind such oddities as the driveable bed, in case you don't know)

May have been posted before.
I was looking at some old stuff and thought that this car was horrible with all its wings and things....

I often find the mid-70s F1 cars a bit... in a way hideous, but more like curious. I mean it was an early stage of aerodynamics development in F1, but the huge airboxes and some of the boxy wings make you wonder, what DID they really think of aerodynamics back then...

I'm late to the party so not sure if this has been suggested. But the Peugeot 307cc rally cars of the mid 00s were disgusting. From an aesthetic point of view, using the the hatchback would have been far better. They raced in the BTCC around the same time and weren't offensive to the eye.

Surely the six-wheeled Tyrrell has to be a contender?

If you're talking in comparison to it's contemporaries the X wing Tyrrell has to be up there. Required an emergency change in regulations just on aesthetic grounds!

It's weird though. I always liked the quirky look of the 97 Tyrell. It stood out and I think today there is too much moaning about different things on cars. The shark fin which has appeared probably make the 2017 cars look less beautiful but it can't all be about shape others the 50s and 60s designs would be brought back.

I am from Gran Canaria. I am absolutely convinced that there will be no problem with the rally.
