It’s been about a year since we last spotted the “Dragon Vette”, a customised Corvette so hideous we dubbed it “The World’s Worst Custom Car.” Now it’s for sale. Would you buy this – thing – for $US71,000? [Jalopnik]
It may not sound much different that a weed-whacker, but I can assure you that if this 1/6 scale replica of the 1964 Corvette L76 327 cubic-inch V8 was put into a tiny car, it would give a Leprechaun the ride of its life. The mini four-stroke engine was fabricated from scratch by a guy named Jim Moyer, and it can hit a staggering 11,000 RPM when opened up. Impressive.
