1971 Plymouth Cuda with a Viper Chassis and V10 Engine
« on: July 07, 2015 - 06:41:35 PM »
Even tough this Cuda is butchered and sill like it :)



From the article:
After a few of dyno pulls, this beast right here puts down 547 RWHP and 623 lb-ft (844 Nm) at the wheels, wrapped in performance Michelin Pilot Sport radial rubber. This engine comes from a 1995 Dodge Viper, a motor that is kept in check by a Borg Warner 6-speed manual and a Dana 44 rear end with 3.55 gears.

Very cool... and seems like nice work (although I like to see detail shots of how all those pieces really fit together.)

That said... when I see project cars like this, I always have the same question: "Why?" Lol.
