Wow, far from my taste, but sounds like some wild ingenuity.

Every year i go, and every year i miss sh$t like this. Between this and Marty's pics, i almost feel as if it was a different show. Weird (both missing alot of stuff at the show and this car)

I spotted that and took at look at it.
Spent the whole time asking why? It was upstairs in the south hall mixed in with the off-road stuff.

Right! I stopped to look at this and just scratched my head as to why anyone would do something like that. I suppose the answer "because they can" is acceptable, but really...why would you do something like that?

It's dumb, but gets press. So I guess it has a purpose for the shop/owner?

The rear wheel offset looks horrible IMO.

That's pretty tame in comparison to some things I have seen upstairs in the truck hall.

He could have saved himself a ton of work had he just put a really clean mirror on the firewall.

Haha, I looked at the pictured first and kept thinking that's surely all it was... but nope! :headspin:

I agree - complete waste of time, money, and talent.

But int he crawl below the article, I saw a link for an LS V12, now that sounds cool !

(BTW I remember that dual engine roadster rod in Hot Rod a few years ago, now that thing was cool, but it was a totally different aesthetic and it made great sense, its not like I would reject any concept of a dual engine vehicle. Also the FWD drivetrain up front and then repeated in back is kind of cool too).

Agreed! The fronts have more reverse than the rears. looks backassed.

I also really dig the LS V4. That would be a great block to stuff into my Cruze.

Yep, so is rust. :lol:

I saw the car while I was there and really did think there was a mirror in the engine bay when I passed it. I didn't even stop to look at it closer. It was in the section where the vendors were trying to make hard sells on their products.
