I believe this car was first built by a young man by the name of Ryan in the '90s and back then had a Mopar 318 in it. Now turns up with a rover V8 and one piece fiberglass front end, looks good.
I love that front end bodywork with the bonnet and split grill..very different and makes it stand out from the crowd. and having a V8 in it is great too.
There used to be a Morris Minor in the Northern California car show scene in the 80s, that had a 429 Ford, 8-71 supercharger, 2 big Holley carburetors, a full tube chassis, that was pro-street, each time the owner really jumped on it, all the freeze plugs would pop out
@@baronfyrewhine I watched it happen about 4 times! So you lose! Lol He got kicked out of an NHRA event because the car wouldn't go straight down the track. It would kinda crab and go. Then blow the freeze plugs it he really jumped on it
@@timothyboles6457 I don't "lose" anything. You proving you're a serial liar doesn't make me the loser. Freeze plugs don't blow out because you "really jump on it".
@@baronfyrewhine since you weren't there. And probably weren't even born yet. I'd shut it if I were you. You did lose! You answered the question incorrectly! That car was well known throughout northern California. It was at several GoodGuys drag events and car shows! In addition to the WSMA shows that I worked. Before you open your mouth again. Perhaps you should turn your brain on as well. I NEVER lie! It's not good policy I've learned that through my 55 years
@@timothyboles6457 There was nothing for me to lose, genius. You on the other hand, lost your integrity. You're either a liar or you don't know what freeze plugs are. "All the freeze plugs" would never blow out of an engine because once one blew out the reason for the rest to blow out would cease to exist. Besides that, nothing that "jumping on it" would do would cause freeze plugs to blow out unless the guy who owned the car kept the engine so full of fluid that there was no room for it to circulate and then didn't learn his lesson and repeated the same idiocy over and over again. That might be something you would do, but any person of normal intelligence wouldn't. You CLEARLY have no idea what you are talking about and YOU should "shut it". Being 55 and this ignorant is nothing to be proud of, liar. Maybe it's early onset Alzheimer's. Or borderline retardation.
I don't know where or what is going on but it does still exist as I did a tax check on it and it was taxed for the year at the beginning of this month and apparently now it's painted orange.

"all the freeze plugs would pop out" I'll take things that never happened for $100,000, Alex.

Fine. But I thought you might show the power of the car by going on a distance
Limey hotrod got to love it....
looks like a willys bonnet
It looks like they lifted the front.
Henk de steen - ????.
Reminds me of the lady boys of Bangkok. Neither here nor there. Neither a muscle car nor a classic
Nothing that a decent facelift, better panel fit, good paint job and decent wheels couldn’t fix!

carlo idiot
What's wrong with that V8?
