I think this is great:







Can you spot the engine yet?






It's a 1960 Rambler Station Wagon with Ferrari 360 running gear nutssmokin. The amount of work gone into creating it is absolutely amazing, whether you like it or not.

Wow, awesome find, would love to see more detail.

I thought it was stunning before I found out it had Ferrari power, don't think I'd like to be driving it at Ferrari speeds though!

With you on that, the looks really aren't my cup of tea but the effort and engineering that's gone in to that are stunning thumbup

Wow, that is awesome! I notice the rear windows are angled in to get some air in there....I wonder where the intake pipes go?

If that is a hearse, I know what I want to be delivered to the furnace in.

Really? It's pointless and undriveable. Beautiful, of course - but still pointless.

What a boring world this place would be if everything 'had a point'.

Yes, it's loony-tunes, slightly deranged, and all the better for it. The first penny farthing must have looked ridiculous, even as strange as the Lotus 108.

Come on, enjoy the strange, stupid and even insane - but if they are done with passion, brio and skill, then they should be celebrated.

Exactly.


I'm trying to work out how comically bad the cornering would be. One the one hand, the handling must surely be comically bad, just look at it. On the other hand, it is basically a ferrari underneath....

You'll like it even more once you've seen the spec.

Let's put it back on track then.

Possibly reposts as the guy is on PH but I'll risk it.

No air ride, chrome bling or shaved anything. Just 549bhp / 491ftlb torque from a modded LS1
