Doesn't make sense to me either. Of course I can't read/speak french...
Could you imagine how loud this would be uncorked?
Gm supercharger on a carb'd 12A?
I know there were manifold kits sold that were supposed to allow you to add a supercharger, but I was always skeptical. Interesting that someone did it!

Oops...sorry.

Yeah that. And apparently there is a four barrel carb under that eaton supercharger. With the extreme high-revving nature of a rotary, this seems particularly inefficient, especially with no intercooler.

It's the perfect storm of shrieking noise.
As a frenchpuertoricancatholicjewfromnigerabornintheUSA, I can handle the french.
The abridged version:
"Cette pièce de merde ne marche pas.La pille est morte et je suis fou. Tabernac!
I like the V-belt running the supercharger, and where is the carb. It looks like he may have tried to make it a blow through set-up.
It could be the angle of the picture, but the pulley angle alignment looks less than stellar.
and it still has the rats nest, WTF
I love the ratchet strap holding down the battery.
So, let us cut to the chase-----Are you going to buy it???

Nah....I sobered up.
Price is too high, anyways, even if it hadn't been butchered.
You guys have a good eye, I hadn't even noticed the ratchet strap battery tie-down...classy
It looks like the drive belt for the supercharger is on there for the photo only. I can't image it would stay on if the car was running.
Okay...how do you tighten the supercharger belt?
eh?
You can't. Unless you move the waterpump. Bad idea. I bet the waterpump belt slips like crazy. Good idea, poor execution.
Have to love Google translate:

Good translation NOHOME, but I think your first was better...
Fillage = spark plug wires
courroies = all the belts
tinck a gaz = gas tank
