That motor is out of a P-51D Mustang, which was one of the fastest internal combustion driven planes in history. I've always wanted to see that motor in a 69-70 Mach 1 body.

Projects like that are neat but totally useless. I bet it would fall apart at WOT and if it didnt likely couldnt make it down a dragstrip in one piece.

Trust me.. that car was built to take the power. It was built in Australia by a guy who owned Castlemaine Rod Shop. I know the current owner of the '55 too. He is a very cool guy. He's also the guy in the vid the OP posted who is sitting in the law chair.. and said "don't break my stuff." LOL

That is one of the nicest looking '57s I've ever seen. Kudos to the shop that built it. Wow! Mega muscle!!

Wow , that car is amazing. Any car that takes that much work just to start it should not be taken lightly.
