I was expecting more too - maybe they were under more constraints due to the client ? Although what I heard was it only had to be yellow.
However there was likely also a budget.
Budget is the only reason i can imagine they put a LS motor in it. We've seen Ring do a lot of Roush/Windsor stuff, a fuel injected modern tech Cleveland or Clevor would have been really interesting, maybe a custom IR manifold or x-over headers or something like that would have really set it off. I strongly dislike the interior as well.
However, it is a Pantera on a custom RS chassis with Ring bros quality. Its definitely a nice setup. Color hurts it as well. Client said it had to be yellow, but maybe a more contemporary yellow ? Perhaps a bit matted out or something.
Anyway I'm not knocking it too much obviously its a ncie machine, just didn't quite live up my day dream.
