So I guess we are up to $100k replicas now?
YOU KNOW HOW MANY LINCOLNS YOU CAN BUY!!???? lol
Wow!
Ron,
I saw that car a few years ago - awesome!
Not a gnat's ass bit of room left in the engine bay...
In...I'd "rock" it!
Can we really ever have enough power?!
I wonder how much stuff would have to come off to take out the engine.
With that much equipment on it, you probably have to pull the engine and tranny as a single unit.... I wonder what it takes just to change plugs...
I think a sawzall would be needed. You'd have to do a Hoopty on the rear of the car to work on it.

OK, that was pretty dang funny!
They've been airing that Lincoln commercial on TV quite a bit lately. Your Lincoln is getting some serious airtime, Christian!
Lincons are like caddilacs , They are not what they use to be ,, Sad but true.
Anyone know engine specs? Any more about the car? I'm guessing it's a 911-6
930 Turbo
The car was built by Chris Toy. Nice guy. Here's a brief on the car:
There was a guy, a while back on one of the forums I monitor, who was trying to stuff a V8 Audi engine into a 356 coupe. It was going to be a mid-engine setup. He stopped posting about the project in 2011. I wonder if he ever got the car on the road. I think the guy lived in Malaysia.
I remember that guy, Ron. He had a rough going with the Porsche people on the registry, but I was following his build on other boards as well.
Might take a little investigative work on the Al Gore highway...
The guy had imagination and money, which can sometimes create works of art, and other times create huge turds .
Did he say turds?
Yes, he did.
I still believe in the aircooled engine platform. But if gas keeps gettin weaker I may have to start shopping for a doner fuel injection kit from a toyoda carolla and adapt it They still make the most dependable injection.
