    Cool 1200 BHP Twin supercharged 1974 Chevy Corvette

    Having driven a 50th Anniversay Limited Edition Corvette when I was in the States, it is a great piece of machinery - this one's a beast!

    Just listen to it. Check it step out

    One of a kind custom, updated body kit, Black on Black.
    Over $250,000 invested, pro built 522 Merlin engine, twin whipple super chargers, alum heads, 1200 horse power, all top of the line parts and polished, Richmond 6 speed transmission, upgraded performance suspension, custom made 19 in HRE wheels, heavy duty 4 wheel disc brakes etc, factory air conditioning, PW, custom made factory gauges with 250 mph speedometer, 4 in custom exhaust, 50 gallon custom made fuel cell, all professionally built, numerous hand fabricated parts. Only 100 miles since built. Recarro seats, flared body, words can not describe this car! Absolutely the best custom Corvette in existance. Show stopper and incredible performance and handling this car breaks traction at 100mph. More horsepower at idle than a new Vette or Viper at max performance.
    What the mind can conceive, it can achieve.

    ...and that is all it is good for!?
    Pull it out of the garage, rev a bit and put it right back into the garage?
    250 000 USD!?

    ...some boys have serious issues...

    Well, the guy built the car and then sold it on auction. The car isn't being used to drag or show-off or anything... hence the strutting around the driveway...
    Just like you Joker, he wanted to show it could be done.

    I bet an old-ballie bought it and takes it for a spin on Sundays.
