The owner should send this completed vehicle over to Jeremy Clarkson for a test drive, like he did that W12 powered Golf that the SATNAV thought he was in Germany...

LOL

It must have been craving the AUTOBAHN to unleash the 640 HP 6.0L engine..

I hadn't been there in a few years...went to see if I could buy wheel studs there when I needed them for the Impala. They had the front door open, with a "do not cross" tape across the doorway, and would not even acknowledge that I was there, trying to get inside. There must have been 7 people in there, laughing, totally ignoring me, even though I was like "hello?....hello?" 5 feet away from them.

So, I'll never go back to that place for any reason. And I make sure to tell everyone about how they rip people off and are extremely rude. Maybe they can build a car, I don't know. But I would rather pay double somewhere else than to give Autofab any more of my business.
Thanks for posting.

Wait, scratch that.

In for updates.

This. Is. Awesome.

Always thought it would be hilarious to do this, and glad to hear a turbo is in the future as well!

If you live in mass while the shop in Maryland? Just wondering if you know these guys or something. With all the big shops in mass and New England that's why I ask.
