    It’s gonna need more than a stock engine to make those wheels go round...

    Nice to look at but what's it like to drive?

    For more fun, that should have two engines, with steering on the rear pair of wheels ... instead it probably goes round corners slowly making sad screechy noises as the rear pair of wheels is dragged sideways.

  11. Yeah, makes you wonder what goes thru people's heads doesn't it?

    Cal Look is a classic case of this in it's own small way, the Cal Look stance police would have you believe that the only look to have is 145/80's on the front and 205/70's rear; preferably Michelin.

    Nowadays, many of the crowd who invented Cal Look, would agree 145's look great but on a street car...., corners just don't happen properly and the ride is harsh.

    There is a combination of art and engineering in any vehicle?

    This one almost got past my taste filter because I'm a sucker for that matt primer look.

    I have to admit all the mods are quite 70's style.

    Back in the day people did their Splitties like this didn't they, carving out big round wheel arches at the rear dragster style. Try as I have I cannot find a picture on the internet. When I lived in Ely I got to know a chap who had one and kept it like that purely because everyone he met asked him when he was going to fix it. A man after my own heart.

  14. Almost looks like a vehicle the thunderbirds would use.

    It’s not terrible looking like some wildly altered bays I’ve seen and with a carefully chosen colour scheme could look quite good.
    Practically wise it’s useless but that’s not why it’s been built.

  15. I agree, sparkly bling bling paint and flames may just push it into the gack category!

  16. It’s not my taste but it looks ok, I wondered if it’s 4x4 or dummy axel. It the craze in America putting extra long swing arms on bikes, not my thing but I have no taste
