Met the guy in person. Said it was a 5.3. Saw it run, was not impressed. Pretty cool. It with all the cheap parts, I don't see much value in it.

Im just curious who comes up with these ideas for these cars and then sells them?

I mean if I came up with an idea to swap an LSx into a ride, it'd be something I'd wanna keep not throw up for sale??

Maybe it's just me. But I wouldn't want a LSx Celica.......

People who build something like this then realize their idea was terrible. Or people who think anything with an ls1 swap is worth money, which in this case I don't think is acurate. I would personally never want that car.
