I don't even want to know what the asking price is!

Looks like a pocket knife all opened up.

Looking at the pic with open doors and 'wagon window' ... if it were mine, as a minimum I'd get rid of the 'wagon window' and restore that area ... not too shabby.

It's possible that it is a 454 small block.

That said, I don't know where to go with this.

Hmmm... It always surprises me how much time/money people will spend for seemingly no other reason than... they can.

I kinda like the 'vette wagons... but not as a hatchback, commit to one side or the other!

So lose the doofy exhaust, the lambo doors, the extra spoiler, the luggage rack, and the hatchback-ness and your /starting/ to get some where! Though I hate to think what the interior looks like

Looking again.. is it 'Bagged' too?

The valve cover does indeed look like the Hardcore 454 small block.

Well, the car taught me there is actually such thing as a 'small block' 454. I wasnt aware of such a product.

Whats really upsetting is that someone poured A LOT of time and money into that car. I wish I had buckets of extra money to spend on gaudy car modifications.

With the right parts, they have mega-stroke small blocks up to just over 500ci.

Look up 4.5" bore spacing small blocks.

That said, you'll be entering into a whole new world of custom parts...

Yeah it's kind of like a "Where's Waldo" puzzle... I've looked a few times and I can't find anything right with it.
