I don't think that cars gonna be able to keep tires underneath - does it come with extra sets of rear tires in the trunk for "test" drives?

Really stupid application of a Hellephant. So stupid he has to sell it on ebay. [screwy]:rolleyes:

I'll bet Dodge doesn't give him another one.

Odd horsepower to tire ratio... hopefully the new owner fills in the rear fenders.

I really like the show and Mark is a Mopar expert, but as far as this build, I "get it"....it wasn't a bad movie in its day. In this case I just think its the wrong car to place such a special engine into.

I would have liked to see something like a rough copy of the "Hemi Under Glass" Cuda (except engine under the hood) since it's a back halved car that has a slim chance of getting the power to the ground at least. -Or a Don Prudome "Snake" car....something along those lines...if you want to go the throwback route.

Beautiful car. Awesome engine, esp being Serial #0001.
But I can think of about a hundred better choices for that particular
engine to be in.

Application notwithstanding...that's a cool car...and serial no 0001...how cool is that

Im with everyone else. Not a fan of a high hp wonky car. I dont think this will really be a collector item in the long run. Shame, the possibilities were so much more interesting.

The fact it's on Ebay kinda says it all doesn't it? Also says it's not finished

That would defiantly catch your eye on the street then kick your ass on the right tires that is.

I like the Hemi Under Glass suggestion above. I also would have like to see it installed in a replica of an early factory altered wheelbase car.
