I think you'll find the HTM is Hi Tech Motorsports, that was in the days of Tom D'Antonio. Tom was the guy that went to Shelby and was behind the 4000 project. A couple of his wants for the car were the one piece glass cockpit and trunk. He ran the glass shop for them making such parts. The cars built by Tim Gunning were I believe stamped with HTR the R standing for replica. The 9" centre section and the aluminum panels on a glass body are certainly, though not exclusively, Hi Tech features. There are a couple of knowledgeable Hi Tech owners that know more about it than I and have kind of an unofficial registry going on these things. I'll have them check in here. I believe the diff mounts and brackets may be a tell tale. They also may have oversize holes in the diff brackets with a bushing welded to it after positioning. The front suspension will likely be a Galaxie upright. More info as it comes to mind and the experts chime in.
