datzenmike Posted October 11, 2019 Report Share Posted October 11, 2019 Jesus, why not slice it down the center and add 8" in the middle??? Big enough flairs can't save it. I think it would have been fast enough with 2wd and the stock-ise suspension. 1 Quote Link to comment

mainer311 Posted October 11, 2019 Report Share Posted October 11, 2019 There was a kid at Japanese Car Day this year with those same exact bucket seats in his 620. It was the most uncomfortable thing I've ever sat in. 1 Quote Link to comment

It was the most uncomfortable thing I've ever sat in. They look like they may be ProCar seats. Not very comfortable to get in and out of, but when you're pitched sideways at 55 mph, it's nice to have some side support. Kind of hard to drift in a bench seat. I love the guy's imagination, and further more, he actually built it. How many engine swaps start here with questions, but never get off the ground? This guy obviously isn't a bench racer. 2 Quote Link to comment
yenpit Posted October 11, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2019 Yeah, Bob3 is in Colorado Springs! I got a ride in his Cactus Green 521 with the Miata drivetrain & suspension, have not been in the red 411! He LOVES spanking the Porsche drivers in vintage, cuz they all hate that 411...............but he can only run in the exhibition class, cuz the car is not vintage legal! Crazy man! 2 Quote Link to comment
banzai510(hainz) Posted October 11, 2019 Report Share Posted October 11, 2019 yes he actually finished it. and has the skills However at this price a kid will buy it and once it breaks it will be in the back yard which really is a shame. 2 Quote Link to comment

Charlie69 Posted October 13, 2019 Report Share Posted October 13, 2019 I see some hood modifications needed. Nice work, would not be my choice. 1 Quote Link to comment
Stoffregen Motorsports Posted October 13, 2019 Report Share Posted October 13, 2019 Diamond plate strut towers? Really? Sounds great though, and I bet it hauls 2000 lbs of ass. 1 Quote Link to comment
