Just a few fun pics of Yep, that’s right a Yugo with a wide body kit, big tires and a turbo Chrysler 4 cylinder driving the front wheels and a big Cadillac V-8 mounted in the rear seat area driving the rear wheels! The mastermind behind this thing is Bill Grabel of Valparaiso . Of course he was assisted by the ever inventive Jim McKamey.

There's an Audi TT out there with 1 engine/ transaxle combo for each set of wheels. I done seen it on the TV! But they had a pretty sophisticated engine management system that ran both sets (engine and trans) in tandem all the way down to spark to keep them in sync.
I think that's probably out of the question on the Yugo though. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) |
