That looks like Kenny Rumbaugh's race car. At one time it had a 4.0L engine that put out something like 380HP or so. I forget what transmission it has, I think a 915 and limited slip and all. I raced against it in a street circuit race in Tecate MX and he only lasted a few laps, way to much power and low on reliability?! The car has been around for a long time and is really well made but with a grenade motor it is hard to live with. It would be a hoot with a stock 3.6L motronic type of engine and much more fun to live with. It would be hard pressed to duplicate the tube work and panels that are on this for the asking price.
