The Swoopiest Pro Mod you ever saw..

[topnitro]

I'm not a fan of the modern-styled Pro-Mod, but I took that all back when I saw this piece on Competition Plus about Harold Martin's self-designed and built M4. It simply took my breath away. I would love to see that in regular PM competition!

Richard,Richard ,Richard that car is just awful looking , i much prefer Pro Mods to look like they should not be race cars ie Pick up Trucks , estate cars etc.

Hmm...give me Freddie's pick up truck any day of the week. Not really in the full spirit of pro mod is it?

At least I didn't title the thread "The Most Beautiful Pro-Mod I ever saw"..... Ha!

Front end looks like a funny car...ish

I do like the photo showing the rear end though, does look ok there.

What motor is it running?

[Flying Toilet]

To me it looks a lot like an electric car with the covered front wheel wells and the stuck on light/grille.

The rear arches have a '63 Pro mod 'Vette look about them and the rest looks like an upturned boat...

I presume a big inch Nitrous motor with Fuel Injection as that is Harolds speciality.

Pro Mods for me are the definative "Hot Rods from Hell", this thing looks as if it has been made just for the wind tunnel.....yuk!

id guess till a "pre-1960 bodyshape" rule is introduced, the quest for quicker PBs will see more slippery shapes
