    "Lexus powered"? Would be interesting to see what the drivetrain looks like.

    I don't remember the details but it sounded pretty interesting. Lexus V8 and trans I believe. Fred Connors can give you the full scoop, I think he was in on the build.

    Imagine pulling into your local Lexus/Toyota dealer with that! "Hey, my 'Check Engine' light came on. Can you put this on the scanner?"
    1953 Hornet sedan Twin-H
    Custom front springs, drop-blocks out back, Clifford 6-2 headers exiting out back shotgun style, Pertronix, and Flames!

    1964 Chevy C-10 Longbed, 396/TH400 lowered just enough and \"easy to touch up\" Black paint.

    2003 Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor
    Caved in quarter and fender. Bad paint. Non-True-Trac heap. But it's paid for.
