Is this the same car that was at the GWFBT last year, in 2012?

Some History on Goodies Speed Shop: (Includes a note or two on the Corvair)
_http://goodies-speedshop.com/p-888-history.html_
(http://goodies-speedshop.com/p-888-history.html)
PS - Yes, it was a small block, not a big block. Since I have been - off
and on - a customer of Goodies since about 1965, I remember both FUBAR2 (Try
and get that plate through the DMV today!) and the Corvair shop vans. I
remember hearing rumors of the early car being in someone's backyard in the
San Jose area, but that was at least 10 years ago. The article kind of
glosses over some of the other "Speed Shop" history in the San Jose/South
Bay
area. But there were dozens of shops at various times. They mentioned Speed
Merchant, also a SuperShops, Santa Clara Speed Center, Vic Hubbard's (still
around) and lots of others. I am pretty sure I visited all of them at one
time or another.
