One word. SWEET!
Dual Quads.... LOL. Sure hope they stiffened up the frame. Torque’s gonna be a *itch.
Why spend all that time and money to crank out horsepower — and, then drive it like Grandma on her way home from church on Sunday?
483 hp. You’re gonna put yer eye out with that thing.
😁
(That's a work of art!)
No way I’d get into that thing.
After all, it doesn’t have a light and an increasingly intrusive tone to warn me when my seat belt’s not on,
thereby keeping me safe,
not to mention an always-on satellite up-feed to benevolent corporate and government officials who monitor my speed, location, and well-being
because they love me.
Lol! I’d happily put up with the many inconveniences of the past. Anything to get away from this garbage culture of today.
Lol!
Can’t stand those awful looking “rat rods”.
People who do that to these wonderful old classics should be put in jail, or at least flocked until they come to their senses. :)
Flocked? Like a white Christmas tree? That’s just mean.
Make that "Flogged".
"Flocked" is for the birds!
Lol! I don't think there's an original nut or bolt on that car. :)
I like classic cars that have been kept in good condition or have been restored. I cringe when I see a beautiful old car that Bubba has turned into a monstrosity. I get the same feeling when I see an old gun that would have been worth thousands of dollars but Bubba applied a torch and a saw to make the gun look “real purty.”
I love it that the builder stuck to
the brand. It’s just not right to
stick a Chevy engine in a Ford, or
in a Dodge, or anything else that
isn’t Chevrolet.
It is acceptable to put a Chevy engine into a Jaguar, that way you know it’ll run.
Ha Ha, I see and appreciate your
humor there....
Though, the biggest problem with
cars from across the pond of the
English persuasion had terrible
electrical systems.
But after you've seen this... OH, BABY!!!
