    It's been a few years, but there was a very extensive website with hundreds of photos of a sleeper hot rod. Here are some things I remember about it that may or may not be accurate. It was a Model A. It was in Sweden. It had a modern four banger that was modded cosmetically to look like the stock engine. It had custom made aluminium wheels that were painted to look like wood.

    This is probably a well known car, it's very unique and very well built and detailed. Probably very expensive also. Thanks for any help.

    I remember seeing the car featured is a magazine, the wheels were the standout feature. Bob

  8. I gotta get me one of those LMAO!, that would get my A$$ locked up, second thought , .... I better not,
     
  9. There has been a lot of info posted on the net for the last few years on this car. I like what they did, bet the wheels werent cheap, and really like how they made the Cosworth look old. Theres some kind of switch, that makes it sound like a banger too.

    Extreme quality work on those wheels but Model As never had wood spokes so it looks wrong

    WOW. I'm sure glad I guessed wrong. That's an incredible series of photos. And plans should you want to dupe that ride! Gary
