I know this is gonna hurt, but...

Check out the engeneering on this tudor. I am impressed, even if it ain't so traditional. Hope the link works.

I'm impressed by the engineering that goes into Blackhawk helicopters but they have no place on a traditional hot rod message board - either.

My thoughts exactly.

 

You can polish a turd but, it's still a turd!

 

It's been quite a while since I've seen anything that ugly, if nothing else E-bay is allways good for a laugh or two.

 

10 years ago I was messin with a SHO, never got around to runnin it. I set it up for RWD, and sold it.

 

I've seen much better engineering on the HAMB.

For quick reference, check out Deaths Door step and Cole Foster's Back in Black.

 

Not so impressive is the hole cut into the firewall to clear the throttle body. I can't imagine having the air intake protruding into the passenger compartment to be a pleasant thing.

Over-all, it is kinda neat though.

 

The intake in the cockpit was done by Harry Miller, though. I guess that part is traditional, then.

 

Maybe for a race car...

not on a "driver". I can't imagine how unpleasant it would be to listen to the engine sucking in air on a real long drive.

I guess this ends my curiosity as to weather or not an SHO engine fits into an A.

 

WTF???? Some people!
