    LOL!! It looks like that engine could just take off and leave the car behind!

    WONDERFUL shot, Paul!! Great find!

  • Does seen to be a bit over done Rono. But maybe not, you can never have enough power. Thanks for the favorite.

    Love it when they do this to tiny cars! Hope he’s got wheelie bars…
    Very cool image Paul!

  • Ya, it’s got wheelie bars. Do you think it needs them. The axels are about 8" long the rest is wheels and tire. Thanks Bill

    Wow! Hope the front suspension was reinforced to handle that power plant!

  • Oh she was built well. I would love to see it on the strip. Thanks Mike.

    Incredible shoehorn job on that big block Chevy! Is that the same Vespa company that makes scooters?

  • Thanks Dennis. I was wondering the same thing. Perhaps he should put a big block on a scooter.
