What is the weirdest place you ever saw a person cram a HEMI? Let us know in the comments! And watch more 60 Second Spotlights here th-cam.com/video/4P7bW0K_jVA/w-d-xo.html
Not even joking, a while back I was thinking what I’d do if I had the money and know how to make this sort of stuff, and thought “I’d put a HEMI in a PT cruiser and call it the PT bruiser”. Turns out someone else beat me to it lol
In theory you could do it cheap if you build a simple tube frame, and just drop the body on it, and don’t worry about the front clip and have a 32 grill.
We bought a P/T Cruiser some years ago for our daughter to drive while she was in high school. I never thought much of it, but this one, well, beastly. That 392 livens it up ten fold.
Very cool!!! I stroked my 5.7L in my 13’ Ram 1500 Crew Cab to a 6.4L 394CI: 11:3:1 compression, 230/230 comp cam, 6.4L intake manifold, 3,200 stall, full 4X4 suspension drop.

You had an ever better idea than you realized!
I remember reading a car magazine, there was a couple of pages which showed a PT Cruiser with an 8.2 litre mopar, gotta be 10+ years ago now

The first pt cruiser i can say respect to.

You have truly amazing engineering skills and craftsmanship. Very impressive work. Likely one of a kind PT.
Dan knows how to spice up a PT
I wish this video was about 100 times longer. I’d love to see how this was done.
Lots of measuring and cutting.
12 years, yeeesh! But hey, you got a passion project and hobby. Something to be very proud of. I'm jelly
Love the PT Bruiser!
What did you like the most? Was it the tube frame? The corvette underpinnings? The 392 hemi? The window sticker that says sniff but don't scratch?
Believe or not Chrysler is looking into it !
😮
I just seen this car out around where I live in Jeffersonville.. sweet ride
He had to raise the floorboard 6 inches for the drive shaft.
I'm a senior & would have liked to see u lite the tires!!😒
Mr. Dan Baker - Do you have any details of your Hemi Cruiser build? I'd love to talk with you about that! Beautiful job!
Tom
How much time do you have?
I'm retired, so ever day is a Saturday!
@@dmbviper1 I'd like to talk with you at length also. How can I do that? Robin
I’m currently working on a Hellcat swap for a PT Cruiser
We're gonna need to know when that project is finished!
@@GearHeadTour for sure I’ll let you know and all of TH-cam
@@AngelofDeath333 hey if it comes to fruition I may get you to put the engine in mine!
Very cool!!! I stroked my 5.7L in my 13’ Ram 1500 Crew Cab to a 6.4L 394CI: 11:3:1 compression, 230/230 comp cam, 6.4L intake manifold, 3,200 stall, full 4X4 suspension drop.
Cool! Post up some pics over at facebook.com/groups/gearheadtourfans
AWESOME!!!
It's a ridiculous monster!
Chrysler should have done that,it would sell.
The next evolution of this would be an HHR-Hellcat 🤔
Man that is cool!
We thought so too! It’s crazy what some people are quietly wrenching on.
12 years????🤣😂I’ll be damned but dope build
What front bumper is that
If I heard a pt cruiser growl at me, I'd be shook
I have a 2005 cruiser with flames on it. I would adore an engine like that! 😍
Grande auto Pt Cruiser
Mad max v8 👌👍
Crazy swap
It’s not a pt cruiser anymore, it’s a Hell Cruiser
Talk about a sleeper!
He could pull.
love it haha 👍
12 year build!
I wonder how long before we see his next build?
Good 👍 job my old man love u
Wow I was at that exotic cars and coffee and saw this lol. My white supra is in the background
Let us see some pics! Join us over at facebook.com/groups/gearheadtourfans
Interesting
aaahhh....the ol Part Time cruiser.....
Where did you get that front bumper?
Danny, if I see him I will ask
@@GearHeadTour thank you!
It was custom made.
@@dmbviper1 if I may ask what type of shops make these?
Hennessey should do a build just for shits and giggles
I want it
Could you have kept it fwd?
No
What rear end does it has a Dana 36 or a 44?
44
Dan, we should shoot a longer feature on your PT!
@@GearHeadTour I'm ready when you are!
Not a sleeper it’s a whole coma
How much would it cost to do this??
Chevy crate engines are $3,000-$10,000
Hey, can we borrow $10,000?
PT Snoozer ;)
I wanna diesel swap my PT some point In that things life.
do it!!!
Well it's not Really a pt cruiser anymore 😄
Nice engine but not a fan of the car.
Fair enough!
I bet my Camry would beat it
I smell a race!
@@GearHeadTour lol ah but nice build men ,looking forward to seeing your next build etc
I wanna upgrade my pt cruiser so fucking bad. I wanna drag race my car
Do it!
