    Reminds me of Neil Young's LincVolt.


    What about an RV version?

    It's a classic case of a car that will be worth $10k if you put $15k into it.

    The RV conversion means that not even derby drivers want to have it.

    I just have a silly idea... What about the 1.5 Piccolina engine? Or any small, "economical" engine on this giant? I even imagine the description of the version hahaha, "an homemade attempt to save fuel on a big car... Failing miserably". I don't even know if it's going to run, but... It's a silly idea, as I said before. In the end, i think it's impossible anyway.

    I think it needs a cooler grille. A 52/54 Chevy Grille and a Swamp Cooler.

    Hmm maybe that'll look nice on it too, bar Buick grille and Series 62 grille (which are already in).

    Quick update (I haven't done much) :


    Aussie burnoutmobile (approved by my Aussie friend) with 5600hp and no rear brakes for max smokies


    A widebody drift car with the 200BX 2-litre engine. Don't worry, this is a joke config (just like my life)



    A wannabe trophy truck (800hp and RWD, surprisingly realistic) that drives excellent for some reason.

    What? All these are too silly? So is my whole mod.

    Planning to create a PANEL VAN next, watch out. Woody wagons! Surfboards!

    Also powerglow maybe?

    Why not make realistic hot rod configs?

    Some 50s V8s from fancier brands (like the Burnside one), newer Gavril small-block and big-block V8s (275? 294? 362?) a 353 and 423, later higher-displacement versions of these engines (370? 459?), the 4.5 and 5.5 V8, maybe a 7.0/7.4 or so truck motor V10 version of it, later 4.6 and 5.0 V8s...

    Also, I'm pretty sure 5600 HP is too much for a burnout car and only reliable enough for a dragster, and all-steel wagons were mainstream by 1953.

    I never showed it here but I do have one, just that the livery isn't complete yet. And yea, it uses the Burnside Megathrust V8 (432CI). Maybe I should put some Detroit diesel motors in it as well?

    Restomods of old US cars tend to use new US V8s.

    A modern 5.5 or 5.0 Gavril V8 would probably be right for that.

    Grand Marshal V8 could be PERFECT. A resto-mod is also planned, although Idunno what exactly to use in it
