never heard of this site before but it contains some interesting projects - like the crown Vic police interceptor that some guy has stuck a meteor engine in (the meteor was a modified (detuned?) version of the merlin aero engine and was used in some in tanks) after the war

great site to browse!

I’ve always quite fancied being a journalist. I hear it’s glamorous.

Estimated cost £138k, 0-60 in 6.7secs. Would have figured it would be faster than that.....Limited edition of 58 cars..... I do prefer the flat sided 260/289 look rather than the pumped up SC that most kit manufacturers seem to favour.....
