Certainly unique, needs a bigger engine though to fill up the whole compartment.
I think this is the more-interesting article from that page:

The last pic is a H-D powered car built by one of the most popular Indycar racers of the 1950's, Bill Vukovitch. It ran in the midget category, which could be as-fast as the F1 cars of the day. Look up "The Race of Two Worlds" where USA Indy cars went to Monza in Italy in the mid-1950's and took on all comers.
Some info on Bill Vukovitch: http://espn.go.com/classic/biography/s/Vukovich_Bill.html He won the Indy 500 twice, and died there trying for #3.
