Up to the Pros

A made in USA, modern recreation of a classic car ?

[el_monty]

It is indeed made in the USA, and in recent times. It is an original "neoclassic" design, not a recreation of any particular classic model

[oko94]

I should have used the word "evocation" instead of "recreation" indeed, it's more appropriate.

Is it powered by an American V8 ?

[el_monty]

American V8 = Yes

[oko94]

GM engine ?

[el_monty]

GM engine = Yes

[oko94]

Chevrolet engine ?

[el_monty]

I will have to check my source later but from memory I'm 90% sure it was indeed a Chevrolet engine

[oko94]

Was the car home built or made by a company ?

[el_monty]

homemade

[oko94]

Was it built after 2010 ?

[el_monty]

Logically being a homebuilt it took a number of years, but it was finished after 2010, yes.

[oko94]

Was it finished in 2012 ?

[el_monty]

Yes.

[oko94]

Was it built on West Coast ?

[el_monty]

Not West Coast

[oko94]

Was it built on East Coast ?

[el_monty]

It wasn't built on the East Coast either, but I will say that the location is closer to the East Coast than the West Coast

[oko94]

Was it built East of Memphis, Tennessee ?

[el_monty]

Yes

[oko94]

Was it built East of Columbus, Ohio ?

[el_monty]

No. The location is West of Columbus
