You can find pictures of the main components to the Callaway here along with some articles about it. http://members.rennlist.com/tholyoak/callaway.html

Interior looks like this:

My turbo is apart right now but I'll try and get some actual pictures of it and the interior.

A buddy of mine had one of those. It was an f'n monster. Like a 951 on steriods. Only 49 made by calloway back in the mid 80's if IRRC. It should have a little circular plastic emblem on the c-pillar that says calloway turbo or something like that. The one he had is gone now but I have pretty good pics of the car if you need them for resto.

Hold onto your hat when you get it up and running right. That thing would spin the tires at will in 3rd gear. Point it in the right direction, stomp on it, one..., tw---------------aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!
