Nissan's SR20 DET deserves a mention.

While I'm sure you may have muttered a few curse words at those marshals / tech inspectors in the past, hopefully seeing someone survive this makes you nod your head and say "maybe those guys deserve a beer after-all"

We may judge him for writing for Jalopnik and not knowing about the 300sl's hinged steering wheel, or even including a picture of the Dusenberg at the auction however.

All of these have a hinged steering wheel to make getting your legs in and out a lot easier.

I assume you mean something more interesting than this one they already did?

and for this one that didn't make the cut

and for this one that didn't make the cut -

It'll never rank as the best - but it hit production exactly the way the concept car was shown

A Ford model T could out run it....... brilliant and hideous at the same time.

From the day the Camaro "Concept" was approved as a design study - it was intended for production. The guys at Fishermans Bend (Holden engineering skunkworks) were working on it before the concept car was shown publicly.

Full rebuilds were only needed for stupid openers. If you knew how to drive them and care for them as an owner - they only needed seals every 100,000 km - a $600 service from somewhere that knows what they are doing. Getting a timing chain/belt done on a modern twin-cam engine will run you for that easily.

This universe, this very planet in fact.

Having owned an MX5 (Miata) with a turbo 20b in it - I can only hope they decide to do these for a laugh. SO MUCH FUN!

GM parts have the box and other needed hardware for about $5k. You just need the trim pieces from Oz then.

Start here and get this.

I'd still want to just order in the front bar from a HSV GTS and fit that.

Even the non Walky version, HSV GTS, produce numbers higher than Callaway are quoting, ie, they are intentionally low balling.

Those figures are perfectly believable, since Holden (aka Chevy) already produce more than that with the HSV GTS - same base car, right?

Start here then. Mythbusters to the rescue.
