Atleast he has a lot of weight over the drive wheels
I wonder what the reserve is?
its actually been converted to rear wheel drive it seems (ford rear end with 4.00 gears). what the hell is the deal with it only having two gears...prolly can go to 90 in first.

That's pretty common drag racing technology - the old Chevy PowerGlide 2 speed transmissions can be beefed up to take monstrous amounts of power, and are very predictable for drag racing.

what i find the most hilarious about the whole thing..is the next to last sentence...it was built for their 9 yr old that wanted a real life Muscle Machine...

Yeah, I think a 454 sideways under the hood of a cavy would cause some serious issues! What a project car! I put a 302 in a Ford Ranger, but that was NOTHING!
This is a pretty funny auction, it's even funnier becuase 32 sad sad people have bid on it. If I was really rich, I would buy it and crush it right infront of the current owners face, then hit him with a rolled up newspaper and say NO! Bad dog, don't do that again!!

These are my favourite photos,
here is a shot of Porsche's famous PCCB braking system, oddly enough, they forgot the callipers.
Look at this interior...Clearly a harmony of line and pure functionality that reflects the race origins of the car.
And that V10 engine originally produced for Le Mans.
Yeah, the size of the brakes on that Cavalier also scared me. How much hp did he boost it up to, and the only upgrade to the brakes was carbon fiber pads?
The "Porsche" is even worse, because I'm pretty sure the "drilled rotors" in the pictures are just covers painted to look like drilled rotors.
you know what the best part is....automatic transmission
If you are being sarcastic please learn a bit about the purpose for which this car was built. Most drag racing vehicles use automatic-based transmissions, they have quicker 60ft times and quicker E.T.'s than manual transmissions.
The fastest cars in drag racing use 1 speed transmissions, and before that used 2 speed transmissions. The gear ratios and not the number of gears determines the top speed of a car.
