Anyone here guilty of building this gasser/Zinger??

Spotted this on the side of the strip during the Grand Run last weekend. I thought it was really cool...and outta my budget to reproduce. Just curious if anyone here had built it and wanted to share the details.

 

That thing is supercool, just another toy to ad to the wish list for when I win the lottery.

 

Badass!!!

 

Oh my gawd!!!
Freakin' cool...what did it run?

 

Looks unsafe. High center of gravity. Take a sharp turn and that fuckers going to tip and pin a leg

 

i want one

 

That is the coolest go-cart I have ever seen.

 

looks like one of those Pyair foam engines. cool toy, I'd have sure done something, anything, but a '57 chevy.

 

Coolest fuckin toy car I have ever seen!

 

Like a "Muscle Machine" on steroids?

 

yeap !

 

Man.........to only have more time and money than I know what to do with.

 

You really shouldn't post stuff like that, it gives me impure thoughts

 

That is Very Cool...

 

My wife would kill me.If she would come home and find that in her livingroom.Ill admire from a far. But is downright cool................... I 'd trade her for the car ...........

 

ive got that pic as the desktop image at work, the geeks i work with think its cool..... me included lol

 

I wish I had seen that before I bought my Daughter that Barbie Jeep..

 

Who ever built it definitely has some Steve Tansy genes.

 

Man that things cool. I know Dave Shuten is building one of the Bug Zingers. I don't know who built the 57.

Doc.

 

Thats cool. Reminds me of this (not hamb friendly) Mustang with an 1100ci Sherman Tank DOHC All Aluminum 32-valve V8. The video makes me pee myself.

I know Guffey and Moriarty know about these things. Surely one of them knows who owns this one. Hell, it may be one of them....

 

Man, that's cool as hell. I remember seeing a couple of the Zingers at a car show when I was a kid. I don't know about all of them, but I saw the Vette actually DRIVE off the trailer! Brings back some memories, for sure.

 

where can we buy the bodies that size ???? i would build a bunch of little cars for my son in a heart beat
i hunted for an orig bigfoot for him and he loves it

 

I scanned this outta an old mag I had lying around...

 

Cool ad, I'm sending my 25 cents for the 2 Iron ons!

 

Dave Shutten (Mysterion Clone, Orbitron) is building the Bug Zinger,,, Moriarity had the
super drag..I think it was that one..

 

That was funny.

True, but funny.

 

so.. can you acually ride/drive one off these or are they just show.

 

Check these out - they are driveable, the '57 in the OP has a throttle and looks like it has a brake handle too. http://www.eastcoastminiclassics.com/galleries/InstockModelsReadytoship/

 

I gotta have mine with a Big Block Chevy
