Always wondered what my coffin would look like.

Hmmm. Needs to lose the flames and get a much lower, more subtle hood scoop, but other than that it's pretty awesome. No idea if the price is right, but the car is just two steps away from incredible.

The scoop looks like someone re-used the bottom of an aluminum boat. It's so ridiculous I love it.

I must have it.

Holy weight over the nose Batman. The Jag V12 in non-HE form (as it seems to be here) weighs in at 308kg (679lbs) fully dressed.

That's over a third of the weight of the entire rest of the car.

No scoop. Let those stacks breathe

Actually, I've done the maths and all else being equal (both engines sitting exactly on the front wheels, transmission and all other changes weighing the same) you end up with an 1147kg car with a 60.3% front weight distribution and a V12.

Good luck finding another 1147kg V12 car :)

Removable scoop, then? Needs to function as a sleeper sometimes, too.

Thats right around the corner from me (and by right around the corner I mean a 30 min drive, but in the desert, thats "around the corner")

way to ruin a perfectly good roadster.

I think I remember hearing about the build on this a few years back. Awesome.

If the builder was smart, he would've used these buttons on the steering wheel to set off the fire suppression system.

He did install fire suppression, yeah?
