Here ya go Earthman. It was a mid 20's dodge cowel with a 410 Massy combine rear half on it. Had a 2x3 fabbed frame, ford I-beam axle and I think it was a 351 ford engine. It was a well built car and differant, thats what I liked about it. Heres another pic.

That IS different!!! VERY cool!

Regards,

It is only a sculpture, but it might be of a real car. Tandem seating is kinda neat if the second person is a hot chick [dr

heres one the 1966 BRM (British Racing Motors) 3L H16 engine
it used 2 stacked opposing 8 cylinder engines to make one neat combo

you need to listen to the sounds of the BRM to really fall in love with it.

A concept sketch for a single seater. The narrow at the bottom look is kinda neat. Roofus II ?

That's elegant Flip

Kind of has an aircraft fuselage look to it.

Instead of putting my big motor in a firetruck, I think it would be fun to build a minimal body like the single seater for it. The trick would figuring out how to hide a frame that could support a 3,000 lbs of engine and transmission.

Good luck with that . I love that sketch. The front reminds me of this one which is one my all time favorite cars............

There is a Rolls 6 with twin turbos in this rat

Hey, I can see my old black Morris Eight in the background.

Here it is with its new owner, and that turboed Rolls (another Morris actually) behind it:

That looks evil! I want, I want.

You could build a chassis out of 2" x 6" x 1/4" box section, which would be incredibly strong, but look fairly unobtrusive.

I have seen pix of your old Morris many times KH. Seriously cool car
