Ferrambo!! 2008 Ridler award winner

[VROOOM]

i dont know if anyone has seen this car yet. i guess this is what happens when you have a 60 rambler wagon and you wreck your Ferrari 360. either way this car is pure sex.

Any chance of getting some good pics. The resolution sucks on those.

But I must say, this is already cooler then the Supra powered Camaro. :rawk:

[VROOOM]

its on the cover of the new Hot Rod. i think. cant find real good pics besides flickr and i cant view that at work.

BTW there is an awesome chopped to hell VW Bug in the new Hot Rod too. its worth buying

[ThatGuy]

Here, let me say it before another Zilvian does...

[SinisterSntra91]

Why did you have to type this?

Im simply stating that thing will scoot but it wont handle, its neat dont get me wrong but I think I would stick such an expensive motor into something that would handle better, in the spirit of the powerplant thats in it. Its nothing but a personal preference and maybe im stating the obvious, but no need to call me out over an opinion.

[VROOOM]

the VW Bug i was talking about

[KA-T_240]

I would rock that. Being its the Ridler winner, there is going to be more pics somewhere. Who cares about it being fast, car will more then likely not see the road.

I though only the ENZO had 1 lug wheels?


edit: Here are the pics!!!

Ferrari motor in a Geo Metro Hatch, anybody?

Haha, I respect anybody who would build a car like that, but it is sad that it will never leave the garage.

I'd rather have the Bug, honestly.

[KA24DESOneThree]

Ugh.

Wheels are lame, concept is lame.

Great execution of what is, at best, a mediocre idea.

[Farzam]

Not really feeling it

[just1pepsi]

The combo makes no sense to me. waste of a good powerplant and an otherwise pretty rare car.

[txrxs]

It does what it's supposed to do very well. It gets attention and sits nice on stands, in that regard the car is a success.

[VROOOM]

the Hot Rod article said the Ferrari was destroyed during a prom night gone wrong. im assuming the guy who built this car lent it to his son and he crashed it and this is what became of it.

[slider2828]

AWESOME!! Man is that an F1 engine cause it has cantilever rear suspension and the works.... WHolly christ

[SexPanda]

amazing. Speaking of cool cars, you remember that tiny TINY ass car off of top gear? the one he drove around BBC hq? Down hwy 5 in MO, towards Versailles (ver-sigh. We're in missouri) theres one of those bodies on a dragster frame. I wish i had taken a pic. Next time i go up to KC i'll take a picture.

[SW20Racer]

the rambler is shiny. threw some d's on the bitch too!

but the volksrod is where its at.

Dude...:bowrofl:

thats not too hard, IMO there are many things cooler than that. MANY, but as far as this goes. eh, interesting build, nice as a show car, but nothin i would wanna drive. I personally think the engine could find a much better home.

[S14DB]

Man the Great 8 must have sucked this year. Least another ModelT or 32 didn't win.
