How much for the dog?

Corvette engine, porsche trans, ford wiring harness, mercedes gtr body?,RUNS AND LOOKS PERFECT http://www.ebay.com/itm/MERCEDES-GTR-WITH-PORSCHE-TRANS-AND-A-CHEVY-350-ENGINE-/181378466868?forcerrptr=true&hash=item2a3affc434&item=181378466868&pt=Race_Cars_Not_Street_Legal_#ht_154wt_1161

This thing is for sale again? Or I guess it's more likely it never sold in the first place.

Thread title is appropriate.

It's so over the top awful, I sort of love it a little bit.

If you got that for the right price you could sell the Porsche trans and the engine to get it back under the challenge price... then swap in some cheap FWD engine/trans combo

Those seat belts look so scary.

So hideous its a work of art, its only an hour and a half from me I might see if I can go look at it

Nice Nissan GT-R badges.

Think the yellow Countach behind it is actually a Fiero?

I'm sure it's a real lambo. This guy only deals in high quality autos you see.

Needs some decals.

I think that is a Countach kit gone horribly wrong.

EDIT: Looked up the phone number, Greenville SC. I swear that area of the country is brain damaged. I have lived on both sides of the mountain through there, I know.

If somebody does go to see it, could they please report back what the offset hood scoop is for? Inquiring minds want to know.

It is so ugly, I sorta like it, or at least feel a bit sorry for it. It is way better than a chromed camaro on giant wheels at least.

The catch is; You need to buy the car to get the dog.

I look at is as a cheap 350 with a G50 transmission and adapter. The rest can be toseed but the axles and brakes moight be worth it as well.

Whats the adapter set going for these days and a G50 core.

watch it

the cabin area looks way too high as well as the engine placement.

Drop both about 18" south and it would look a lot better.

Whoa this has a Porsche longitudinal transaxle in it? If it works I think that automatically makes this thing a sweet deal.

I'd drive it just because it's different.

Was that the transaxle the GTM was supposed to use but it quickly became more cost effective to have a third party company custom build the transaxles?

18 bids. Who is going to fess up about making a pass at it?

In reply to The0retical:

Just use an Audi 5000 016 and its derivative with an adapter plate. The GT40 and Lambo replica guys use them with small blocks and enjoy them just fine. Plus they aren't too expensive.

I suspect the Subaru transaxle will become the new "go to" transaxle for mid-engined swaps.
