This customer come to us through word of mouth. He wanted a car that would make the cover of Street Machine Magazine.
Three years in the build and the final result speaks for itself. Built with the intention of being a tough Street Car of good quality, this car was never going to be in the owner's words a "Trailer Queen". An internet search began and a suitable car was located in the U.S.A. When the car arrived it was delivered to Superformance where a detailed plan was put into place following a number of meetings with the Owner and various Superformance team members. The concept was to have a car that looked the part bat was correctly engineered and safe. Engineering drawings of the chassis modifications were bandied about until approved by all parties. Then everything was ordered. In keeping with the safety theme the car runs massive disc brakes front and rear. Check out the major chassis modifications (below) to keep the car safe. The owner did not want a Roll Cage and the car had to seat five people with seat belts.
