Questions / Columbus Ohio pic of a 57 Chevy

Sorry guys if this has been already discussed, but I've been out of town.
What is the power plant &/or story behind this 57 Chevy?

Happy Trails,

Seen it up close and personnal. Looks so stupid that I just walked right by, wasn't even interested enough to ask the owner what the hell he was trying to do.

 

Must have been a plumber who was trying out a new bender he got...

That's one hell of a "Dixie" horn...Bo and Luke are gonna be jealous!!

8 turbos on a V8

I talked to those kats on the Power Tour about that car. It wasn't finished yet, but they were going on about this 57 chevy with EIGHT turbos. I haven't seen it in the flesh, but I don't desire to either. To me this is a shock 'em factor, that didn't work. I know I talk about Rad Rides a bunch, but alot of shops are trying to mimic their creativity and just cannot pull it off. I'm not going to slander the kats car, because I am happy when someone fixes up whatever car they have. I personally think the engine is overkill. And I think the 57 chevy has been done to death, it might have been more intriquing if it were in an oddball car.
