Default Radical Monte Wicked fast!
Thought id share some pics of this crazy Monte Carlo a guy local owns it and hes had it since he was 16. Car just blows me away everytime i see it!
I know its not a Pro touring car but thought you could appreciate the craftsmanship in this thing! Some quick stats on it. All chrome moly chassis car weight is in the mid 2,000 lb area radical sounding and running small cube SB chevy lil over 700 hp range. and the fit and finish is beautiful. the pics kinda speak for themselves.

A good freind of mine got to ride in it, He owns a nicely built BB chevy early monte he races and said its amazigly quick car its pretty much a purpose built hot rod.
To go fast not sure of the quarter mile time and not really sure hes even raced it yet but the few launches he took in it said was pretty sweet to just hook and flat out get it!
Its a pretty samll displacement cant rember the actual cu.in but it would spin some rpms im sure. The owner is an engine builder and builds alot of exotic race engines one off sorta things. But i'd love to take a ride in this lil rocket ship!

Heres another well know engine builder here in ohio that has a small displacement SB that halls the mail pretty well lol aswell, Car launches at 10,000 rpm's and is shifted at 9,600 rpm's lol, Heres a few pics of it and the stats on it. Link at the bottom

If you've ever heard a 10k rpm small block, that in itself is some serious stuff! Always makes me cringe just a little, the sound of parts on the verge of scattering....
