It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.
Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

Not sure if I would call it a Hot Rod or a Ricer..... Maybe Fried Rice?
But I like the idea. at least with this one the "fart" pipes on the exhaust will have some real sound behind them1949 Plymouth Club Coupe Still in pieces.

Gotta say I'm quite impressed. Finally someone who knows how to actually make it go fast, without chrome: door edges, tripple blade finned wipers, neon, chrome wheel well trim, etc every "on kracken" over the counter glue/bolt-on.Justin RFFR

I have heard many people speak of this concept (FWD and rear V8) but this is the first time i've actually seen a car it has been done to!
Cool!Chris

Very interseting concept. Personally, not a hot rod, but loads of imagination, to which I have great admiration!Water tastes better when fizzy and brewed with hops.

Wow, thats a taste of different. In more ways then one. The olds big block is a unusual engine to attach a blower too. The tornado FWD in a CRX for RWD is brilliant. However, i do have to ask, 400, 425 or 455? anyway, It is kind of hard to call. I think I would call it a "performance Hybrid!"Right engine, Wrong Wheels
I wanted to complain about this NZ slang business, but I see it was resolved before it mattered. LOL..
