Its ok. Cool to see another Mosport going goon here. Also cool that you called it Mosport and not Canadian Tire whatever the gently caress.

I know right? I fully expected a Radical V8 or something sitting sideways in the rear, not a full Aston Martin V8, drivetrain, and even suspension subframes.

That first one is loving with my head. Where is the engine now? Which axle is powered? Is it just a very narrow trailer?

Probably needs all three engines from the donors to get that monster rolling.

The flat tires suggest they failed to do that and it only made it to its resting place because the creator's wife demanded it get out of the driveway and he had to push it to the curb.

I can't even imagine how dismally slow this would have to be with the original engine.
I like to think that with so much space that it's mid-engine V8 now, but of course that won't be the case.

Those are more expensive than the lower end McLaran's, so they're definitely in the territory...

I know because I check the price every time Singer releases a car :sobs:

Not sure but that makes the math simple, one engine drives each rear wheel.

Eh you get what i mean. It's the classic looks, it doesn't look like a spaceship and that's what's great about it.

It's pretty much the best restomod ever.
