Willys Jeep Twin-Turbo Dragster

[duffy-duck21]

This small rocket has been finished since the end of December and slept in the showcase until today. After seeing the sun in the last few days, I was able to make pictures of the finished model outdoors in the sunshine.

Very cool. Terrificly clean work.

Excellent build.  That would be a terror to drive. Noticed the beautiful work on your seats, they look like real vinyl/Naugahyde.

Excellent work on a very interesting and unique subject. I've got to say though, I've driven a lot of Jeeps over the years, but I think this one is too scary for me.

Fantastic build Steffen!  Unusual but cool subject to say the least, this Jeep would be a terror to drive on the race track at 150 mph or more...  Well done sir!!!

The LSx Willys Jeep back when it was Procharged, sprayed, and street driven. He blew it up a couple years ago and rebuilt it with a turbo setup and made some chassis upgrades to make it a little safer. 

There's another one called Deathtrap. Despite the name, it's sitting on an SFI chassis that has IFS.
