I saw tons of '60s and '70s muscle cars with LS engines. Lots of scantilly clad girls and the usual amount of celebreties. Then I stumbled upon this bad boy. Twin Turbo 9 liter Big Block, tires for days, and beautiful black. Made me shed a tear. This is a bad ****.

WOW that is one insane ride.
I wish I had the funds to build something that BAd ***. If
I had something like that I would never get anything done
because all of my time would be consumed by that beautifull ride.

Did you notice the the lack of tread on the rear tire's, I guess
that is what 1200 hp will do, they wouldn't look much different
if it were mine.
Thanks for sharing the photos.

Holy schnike!! That is as crazy as crazy gets!! I would bet that is a real handful to drive. Probably a helluva lot of fun too.
