-Total curb weight is 3150 lbs

Complete car custom built from the ground up. Build pictures to show it. Everything from basic stance layout to internal engine mods done in my home garage.
its well built, ultra reliable, and safe, unlike so many sketchy 'rat rods' out there that give this culture a bad name. i have spent real time doing things right.
This ride is not for the faint of heart, and even I am faint of heart. I have only pushed the throttle past half one time on the street, for only a moment, and the seemingly never ending power scared me near to death, and even the dyno has only ever seen partial pulls. last fathers day at a local dyno day, with a good hearty breath of nitrous, it snapped the dynos roller right off its shaft and sent dyno parts flying.

This is the standard by which fear is measured!!!
I have taken people for rides who drive mid 9 second vehicles, and every one of them has stepped out afterwords shaking.
this car is a MONSTER. the torque gives a very different feeling of speed and power than other high horse power cars. down low, and on the highway, at ANY speed it will pour coal and put your eyes in the back of your head, and not let up.
at car shows, it draws constant large crowds, and has had a good amount of magazine and media attention.

This car is Alberta registered and plated, street legal, and has been on the road since 2011 with around 6000kms on it. its currently running, driving, more reliable than an AK-47, and i take it to work about once a week. just get in and drive/feel the fear ;)

serious inquiries only. no trades please. tire kickers will be ignored.

asking $42,000 (Canadian dollars)
this is not a fire sale.

located in Airdrie AB Canada

Hp calculator has this thing at around 9.0et. Yeah I'd say people get a little shaken up afterward.
 
BUMP.

still for sale at a more realistic $29,000cdn now that i have gotten my heart and head around actually parting with it.

2 weeks ago, it put down 855hp, 1505 ft/lbs torque @ 4000rpm with a bump of nitrous to get the turbo lit.

pass it on to your crazy friends with HUGE BALLS! ;)
