Default Hackster's Need for Swede 😁

Some may remember the F100 he built with an LS and single turbo, followed by another F100 with a Coyote and 6spd that he tracked all over the west coast. Well, he’s gone back to his roots and is well on his way with his next track toy.

One of the last 240’s he built. It’s kinda ok I guess, if you’re into super clean, sorted drivers that get 25+ mpg and don’t scream “look at me”.

Yes please! Very cool.

I was just looking at the take-off LSA blower swaps people been doing on LS1's... would be interested in how you did yours and what parts you used.

This is cool. I honestly had no idea people built these cars up until a few popped up on bring a trailer. Some of them look seriously badass. Thanks for keeping us updated, basher.

Sean it looks great and the brown roll bar reminds me of a Singer Porsche.

I would not have thought of making the cage match the interior but it works really well. Gives it a higher class look that goes with the car and your build quality.

The B pillar tie in looks really nice and should add a lot of strength you will hopefully never need. Gotta love those dimple dies.
