    Got talkin to this bloke today at the Harrisville pub over lunch.....took 2 years to get it through main roads......Chevy V8 on board. Looked to be supercharged and it sounded pretty sweet. Never ceases to amaze me what some blokes get up to eh?

    You can say that again Dan - makes 20 times ;)
    Yeah, all that grunt would be great to try out, wouldn't mind having one for a day. Not too good for the mountain pass though.

    One of the mates has one, guy wanted 90k originally then down to 70k, mate ended up with it for 60k, breaks traction at 130k if you give
    it a handful, 500HP with a modified cam, sounds great.
