This is one of my favorite cars I saw at the L.A. Roadster show today. I think the bumper looks a little unproportioned because of the intercooler, but other than that it is a very cool car. I do not know who owned it.

Man I agree... kinda knifes an otherwise killer car. Any shots of the rear?

Yup I got one of the back. You can see his billet gas filler near the rear window. I wish I took some detail shots. Also one of the oval exhaust tubing. This is all I have from this car.

Killer ride except that front end looks sad. No intercooler is that important.

I've seen that car several times as it was built locally by SSR in golden, Co. the car is very clean and there was a lot of work that went into that front grill btu I too agree it's not that attractive.

I could be wrong but I think that is John Devine's Black Chevelle that So-Cal speed shop built, LS7 under the hood.

unfortunately I did not get to see under the hood. It was at the PPG booth.

I am curious who owns it as well. It appears to be a modified Banks Pressure Chamber but the car doesn't look familiar.

I saw this car on display at Barrett-Jackson in Scottsdale this year. Very unfortunate about the intercooler...the rest of the car is amazing.

If I remember my conversatons with the builder correctly....Banks assured him big hp #'s without the need for a intercooler. The HP sucked so this was how they added the Intercooler.

It's pretty safe to say I spoke with who ever ordered the kit unless this particular one was back doored. If someone is wanting north of 600HP I ALWAYS recommend an intercooler.

There was a boyd booth close to the Budnik booth with Boyd himself inside of it. He didn't look very friendly so I didn't talk to him.
