I just don't know who the hell thinks "Lambo-style" doors are desirable? Dorky and dumb perhaps.

That thing is still a project though, when it's finally driving about we can talk about how insane it is or isn't, at the moment it's just an idea.

Is that one actually a konneseigg engine or is it just the ford one that it is based on but with a set of konneseigg cam covers?

Cool either way, just wondering.

Yeah I know. And anyway, as much as I admire Lambos, they ain't famous for their engines.

I thought the granny in projects was a Ford Mustang Cobra V8 low comp twin turbo? maybe wrong though.

Engine will be based on a heavily reinforced twin turbo charged koeniggsegg ccx engine.

Based on?! not sure what it is.

That orange Granada started out a nice classic old Granada that I'd have loved to have owned, then they put those abominable doors on, those abominable wheels on, and no I don't particularly like the colour but the colour is the least of it's problems IMO.

That car was on a trailer at the Scottish Ford Show at Bridge of Allan this summer. Still a non-runner and some of the work wasn't "factory" (like the chopping of the front wings for the lambo hinges, for instance)

Not my cup of tea, but someone has their own vision and is working towards it.
