What about a '55 F100 with some work like the '48 pickup you are working on now? (not gonna lie, that truck is hot. I cant wait to see it with some color on it.)
and even though it's the size of a small yacht, and roughly the same weight, a '64 Lincoln Continental would be cool. It is kinda beyond what I would consider using a transaxle for, but it still would be a slick ride. |

I vote on a Gt40 replica.

Call me crazy, but...
How cool would it be if you build a rear-mid engined Corvette? Like a modern Corvair or something like that. |

A pro-touring GT40? How much more improving could possibly be done? |
Last year when Eric and I got the privilege to tour Tom Hanna's shop on our way to Columbus. We saw his project to build a 300mph super car. His plan was to have it powered by a 5" bore spacing big block, that would be hooked to some kind of rear transaxle that could spit out a front drive shaft to power the front axle. The front drive shaft would spin through the cam bore in the block since it would be a DOHC engine. He already had the carbon fiber monocoque chassis built. This is a picture of the clay body that had laid up in his shop.
Well point being ever since I saw this car I have been thinking about doing a supercar design. I love the GT40 and the Ford GT is my favorite supercar. But They won't fit tall guys like me in them. It would be cool to do a modernized Gt40 one off kinda car. Tyler B and myself were discussing putting that trans in one of these cars. Taking the easy way out. http://www.superlitecars.com/coupe_spec.html |
