If it is good as it looks and the back story is true, this really should be considered

Awesome Sauce

I just saw that this morning and had the exact same thoughts!

I just want to know more about it, seems to be a perfect build for the regular GRM crowd.

Ricardo would approve with what has been done to his Chrysler.

I voted it up as well.

Why not.... Loynings just sent a mid/late 90s Tacoma to Speed Weeks... they went 175+mph with a 2.7 liter 4 cylinder......

5 years ago the same truck set 2 other marks

Wild. What is that other car (primer) in the same set of photos at the end?

Looks like it's a '78 or so Challenger:

With a little more digging, found it on Car Domain (have to sit through an ad first): The Animal

Cool. I voted it up also. I live 30 miles from there. Awesome cars come from Emmett. When I was in high school, I would visit friends on my Spring break & go to school with them just to go to their auto shop. I thought I was into cars, these guys were into cars & well trained - in high school. They had a factory donated Ford 390 on a stand they would learn on. Nothing like that at my high school.

Looks like you might've nailed it! Figured it had to be some random Chrysler to go with the theme.

I hope they retained the original Corinthian leather.

He posted here a couple times but I think some people ran him off.

I read his whole car domain and found his "outside" the box approach to be refreshing. And that Sapporo/Challenger is wicked awesome!

That's too bad. Hopefully it was because of his attitude because people here usually tend to be more open-minded than others.

Yeah, I can't remember exactly but I think this was the case.
