I don't see myself pay his asking price, but I guess all that fab work is pretty damn expensive. It be a great set up for a 454 or 502 big block swap.

WILD RIDE!!! I like the outside look!!! Not much of a fan of the interior though.

I agree... if I had done THAT much engine relocation modification work... it DAMN sure would have had a serious BIG block in it!

Funny... it looks like the exhaust hangers are attached to the rear-end. That's different!

Holy paint the street black for 500 feet, Batman!
Needs interior , like he said, but worth a long, hard look for sure! Or, as my Girlfriend would say, "Mike....your mid-life crisis is here!"

I agree it sure has the right look going for it,besides needing a a billet grill . Drop a bad *** big block in that thing and Put a nice interior in it and you will be the talk of every car show

I dunno....if we're gonna get THIS flippin' radical here then why stop at ONE engine? Use an Extended model and TWO 502 crate motors end-to-end......

Looks like the engine/tranny is attached to a frame that is part of the rear swing arm. Would like to see more pics of the rear set-up.
