Coolest Car....
This has got to be, in my opinion, one of the neatest, and most unique cars I have ever seen. I am a huge WW2 plane fanatic, so I am in love, and for this to be street legal in mind-boogling...How would you like to pull into the local cruise night in this thing? My hat is tipped to the builder...awesome creativity, and unbelievable worksmanship. I predict north of 250K for this one. Damn MegaMillions Jackpot, when will you come through....

Look who the high bidder is :thumbsup:
I hope you get it Charley :unibrow: Can I drive it if you do? :_paranoid :D |
airplane 55

|
One word..... WOW!! :eek:
|

|
Yeah, no doubt! That thing is awesome.
But how do you start it? lol |
Okay. Now THAT is a street fighter
|
I am suprized they are selling it :eek: , I remember hearing about this thing when it was being built up and all I could think was :willy: .

Damn,I guess they take the cake for being original!I agree with you Jeff that reserve is deep into 6 figures.
|
Now that is a big block car.
|
OMG! I need to hear that thing run! :hail:

I have not bumped into Leno at shows. He does sometimes come to the Mopar Spring Fling in Socal. I did get to meet him and tour his shop a couple years ago. He is not bidding as far as I know. I just think he would be a good owner for the car
|
That car is sweet!

Imagine taking it into a shop for a tune up.. lol I really dig the airbrushed artwork... |

I disagree. :D |
Well unless there is some heavy bidding on it soon it looks like it's not coming anywhere near it's reserve.
|
that car would be perfect for delivering mail...or newspapers or ??
otherwise the RHD would take some gettin used to. :D |
Somebody had a stupid amount of money to blow to build that. Absolutely incredible workmanship. That Rolls Royce is somewhere around 1500ci, and $50K to just overhaul one. I bet he spent $500K building it.

I think it's 1650 ci and it cost 1 million to build :eek:
|
Wow...that thing is crazy.
How'd you like to be the guy that had to hand-paint all those rivets? :D |
For Sandlins 8 turbos...since he outed me

I guess you did want that one bad, Charley. Congrats!
When do I get a test ride? |
nothing better than a little competition! :thumbsup:
nice ride Charley |

Cool, Chas. That is one cool car, congrats. The people of Woodland are going to freak!! That will even scare the dogs...
|
Charley, I'd love to get some video of that beast - I just gotta know what it sounds like.
|
:thumbsup: :hail: All it needs now, is 16 turbos ;) :D
|
Just plain nice,now for that burnout in the neighbor's driveway! :burnout:
|
It would be interesting to hear the conversation with Haverty's on that one. Any frame or engines mods? If so please list. :willy:
Congrats C :thumbsup: |
Well if anyone has ever heard a P-51 overhead at an airshow, that will give you some idea of the sound. One of the sweetest sounding WWII engines made. Congrats Charley. I don't think W2W is qualified to tune this one.

Is Chuckey the winner? Dang!!!

Since the pics are off the auction link....
