Is it crazy of me to want this... BAD?

[Koshin]

I was thinking a 5.9 Cummings.

Ummm, yeah. I like your thought process

[MinisterofDOOM]

LOL. I was thinking big block Chevy, with big ol' Flowmasters would sound closer to the looks.....Blup Blup Blup Blup Blup Blup Blup Blup.

Exactly. Glad someone's on the right track.

Seriously a 5.9 cummings with a stack going through the hood that comes right off the turbo. That would be the most evil thing ever, the monstrous roar of the 5.9 and then the massive cloud of black smoke filling the sky above it. Babies would cry and Small children would fudge their huggies.

[Koshin]

...its gotta be a 12V though

12V > 24V Cummins

i know a guy that put a built 12V Cummins in a 60's T-Bird

I'm sure it sounds great. But I have dual flowmasters on my GMC (small block V8, not a big block). Extremely loud, raw and evil sounding. When I fire that beast up in the morning in front of a motel, it's fun to count up the room lights that suddenly turn on.......

I want one, so I can park really close to every new car I see in the parking lot.

[kouki munster]

For me it would come down to which ever one I could get my hands on first, but I wouldn't complain either way.

The only other thing that it would need is a bumper sticker that says "Suck my carbon foot print".

[dhballa8588]

uh oh...bad thoughts a brewin with my truck hahah

[mRodiek]

From the movie Deathrace right?

Wicked cool.

[mmkeller]

lol Was that in the movie MAD MAX ? Set a couple of 50 cals on it and can you spell T O Y

[seang]

It reminds me of the game Twisted Metal.

[krash]

I found MOAR!!!!

[Bwana]

Big block 348? 409 maybe? Looks like it might be a MK1 bbc to me...

[Razi]

Man that thing is crazy.I like!

[EvillE423]

I was thinking a 5.9 Cummings.

Cummins not Cummings. There is no G. It irks me when people put a G in it and say Cummings. I don' t know why, it always has.

That thing is badass though. How the hell does anyone fit in it?

[Mr1der]

SISSY!



I think it needs a Detroit Diesel with straight pipes to be fully effective.

Series 60?

[AZhitman]

Am I the only one who sees a major problem with owning/driving that vehicle?

Greg.. you'd have to cut a very large sunroof into the top of the car.. That way you could sit straight up with your chest, neck and head sticking out the top. You could pick up a crazy helmet or something to wear.. That or lay sideways across the seat?.. There is no freaking way any normal human being fits into that thing.

Nope. You gotta spend more time around chopped hot rods, brotha.

Example: I did some restoration on a '49 Olds for my Dad back in the late 80's... That car had 18" of additional headroom BEYOND my height.

So, there's 1.5' you can drop the roof with no consequence... but the seats are tall and goofy in those cars as well - so, you drop the seat (maybe use a modern design)... there's another 6" of height.

You can channel the frame (which lowers the body without altering suspension geometry), lower the floor pan, and all kinds of other tricks to preserve interior space when you drop a top.

[Mr1der]

true that.

unless I'm retarded...that's a 67 or so Ford....then factory cab on those trucks feels like it's about a foot above my head.

[AZhitman]

Fail.

63 or so GMC, Hoss.

[Mr1der]

eh, regardless....it's still about a foot of headroom.

my boss has a '61 Stepside Chevy.

I don't recognize much older than about '65 and that's just cars

[Koshin]

[Mr1der]

<---wanted one since I saw the movie Cobra when I was 5.

[PBfrEAk]

YES.

...its gotta be a 12V though

12V > 24V Cummins

i know a guy that put a built 12V Cummins in a 60's T-Bird

and double yes on the 12V.

[dhballa8588]

re-fail...its a chevy...i cant tell the year cuz i cant see the doors...but the gmc's have 2 headlights

[MinisterofDOOM]

Yeah, definitely a Chevy, the hood is different on the GMC, too.

[MellowZ32]

that thing is beyond evil! I like it!

this is how you fit in a car like that.

[Tw1tCh_F0_5hIzZlE]
