yes it dose look like you have one of the bikes, real rare, they were made to order. only 10 were made they were too expensive to make as a production bike. in order to make the bikes and keep the price down the parts were bought in lots of 100 or more the hodaka with all the brackets and the motor cost a few hundred more. They also changed the class for racing. The Idea came from my older brother he liked the motor cycles. He bought a hodaka 80 ( I think) and my dad saw that it would fit the frame with a little fabrication the hodaka powered wildcat was born.The bikes were also a bot th fast for most younger kids to ride. In the picture with my uncle that bike was my dads own personal bike. You have a rare find.
