A not so average garage, for a 1000 mph car

Put this in your backyard:

I could handle kicken back in the garage, drinking a few brews looking at that.

 

[Jack Olsen]

I think I'd rather have the cabinets.

I think I'd rather have the cabinets.

Ditto!!!!!!

I think I'd rather have the cabinets.

Ditto!!!!!!

Definitely. And the garage itself of course.

too phallic for me

 

[JMURiz]

I'd take that cosworth and drop it in me old Benz

 

[JCQuick]

I want to drive it

Dude, the wings on your plane are missing

 

[abrahamfh]

The cabinets and the floor treatment.

That thing looks like the F-18's flying around as the Blue Angels without wings.

 

[bazzateer]

Not very practical is it?

Agree re the garage and the cabinets though!

 

[TuffXR]

Barsted!!!

 

[Dragster Racer]

the Cosworth engine will run as an auxiliary power unit to operate various systems.

That's quite a geni!
Really cool all around.

Apparently the primary purpose of the cosworth f1 engine is a fuel pump

Pumping very large volumes of hydrogen peroxide into the rocket.

Wrong color Jack.

 

[TONE]

No front plate...............must be from Indiana

I think I'd rather have the cabinets.

Somehow I thought he would say that before I even read his post

 

[pcgold]

Wonder if the wife would like that for her "grocery getter"?

 

[t100]

I think my HOA would kill it.

 

[Boost Creep]

i wonder how many people on here will ***** that its too clean and no real work gets done in that garage and blah blah blah like they do anytime a clean garage is posted. lol

 

[ADaughen]

That Cossie would be nice in the Pinto.


Could you see someone pulling past you on the highway in a multi-colored rusted wagon with the engine screaming at 10k?

 

[Scout Driver]

They want a 1000mph record, but are shooting for 1050 mph. My '75 Scout tops out at about 50 with 4.27 gears! Quite the contrast. BTW, the garage is great! Beautiful cabinets.

No use to me - it likely can't turn worth a sheet. My driveway is crooked.

 

[Teken]

No A/C?

 

[chief ben]

That has to be the first shop I have ever seen Cleaner than Jack's

 

[mbatarga]

I think I'd rather have the cabinets.

But you'd have to repaint them light green.

 

[Blue Gator Six]

Sweeeeeeeeet. I like the cabinets too. They are a more attainable goal then driving that. Which I would like to do very much.

Apparently the primary purpose of the cosworth f1 engine is a fuel pump

Pumping very large volumes of hydrogen peroxide into the rocket.

I'm still trying to wrap my head around the idea that it needs a full-on F1 engine just to power the fuel pump for this thing.

Agree with the comments on the cabinets. I'd like a garage that size, and I'll swap the rocket car for a normal car assortment of my choice.

Lesbian?
