Guy sold it on Ebay a while back and I crapped all over myself. Said he put $250,000 into it, ended up selling for $70,000. Sad thing was he sold it cuz he was too fat to drive it, he never even got to take it on the road
. I have a vid if anyone can host it...The scary thing is how it sounds....runs through single chamber Flows....

I remember saving some of the pics from the auction, the Whipple Quad-Rotor is the blower he has on that beast.

I think I'd start working out a bit before I took a $180,000 hit. I've never looked into stomach stapling surgery or anything else... but wouldnt that be at least a little under 180k?

That is a cool 'vette. However, if you want to see a even more complicated piece of engineering feat, check out Rick Dobberton's twice blown twin turbo and nitroused J-2000 or his Nova. Am I the only one old enough to remember these?

That vette is mean, but whoever owns it needs to take the mullet-master bodykit down a coupla pegs... It doesn't go too well with those HRE's. Like putting a silk hat on a pig.
