This car was designed to emulate the Indy 500 cars racing during the 1950s. It all looks checks out until you get to the gigantic V12 tank engine that is the equivalent of 5 – 350 Chevy engines in its displacement.

The Indy special has 4-wheel hydraulic disc brakes from a diesel truck, Eaton rear axle, and a solid beam semi front axle. The chassis and polished aluminum skin is all hand formed. This car has a 160″ wheelbase with an overall length of 21.5 feet. The suspension incorporates Monroe shocks with airbags for ride adjustment, and the exhaust exits through exhaust cutouts on both sides of the body (directly under the cockpit).

For one point, tell me what makes this roadster "stand out from the pack."  Another point for information on its sale.

Bummer.  Would one of the editors merge it?  Or if desired, I can just delete it. 

The photo is mine, shot at a car show in Northern Utah 2.5 years ago.  Here's the original.

Thanks for the merge.  I should have looked more carefully before posting.  I'll try to do better in the future.
