Cool build! I don't think I've ever seen anything with the engine mounted that high. Wheel stander?

Unique for sure. Ear plugs driver!

Looks like such a clean body. Wonder how much if any other than that wing is fiberglass.

I saw that as well. Or he is running it like a V-Bottom boat engine and has a rear accessory drive. shruggy

With the motor mounted that high, backwards, and that close to where the seat should be, I'd really to see how the trans/read end is set up.

kind of has the look of one of those plastic motors used to set up drive lines and such.

Appears the visible engine is a fake that sits above the actual engine cover. Maybe slant 6 power? Could be like the wild tubbed cars in the 80's with the stock engine. Fairgrounds cruiser?
