I saw that and figured the owner must be a giant. What's the story?
The guy that previously owned that particular GT was a Mod on the FGT Forums. He was a BIG guy (round and tall) so he had the bubble installed for track days when wearing a helmet for hours on end would put a kink in his neck as it was a tight fit for him even without the helmet. He passed away within the last couple months and his car has since been put up for sale by his family.
And for those at home who don't know how much of a badass Dan Gurney is, here ya go - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dan_Gurney
