I could have gotten a good picture today, it was a chopped Geo Metro, except length wise! It was no longer then your average go kart!

I don't have a real picture of it - but will try to next time I see the car, I whipped this up in paint to give you the general idea of what this car looked like.

You don't double a blower.

A GM 6-71 or an 8-71 you can, but it would be pointless.

THOSE WIEANDS absolutely will not mate together.

With enough $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ You can do anything.

From the looks of the REST of the car, the owner has the $$$.

(and even if it's a fake, it's a damn good photochop!)

I've seen these before in real life.

This one is possible.

It was a big deal in the seventies to zip a transporter up and over and weld the short parts together (especially with a whale tail on the back of the roof)
