Very few of these where built, these GP-9 was part of the UP GP-20 program of the late 60s. This unit was rebuilt with Garret/Air Research turbo system, thats why all the air filters on the carbody.

And just one note, I would have liked to heard the sound from this one...I beleave it had four turbos mounted on top of the engine block.
