DrKerry Posted August 31, 2014 Posted August 31, 2014 (edited) In my eyes, Nothing!!!! Except speed........ SO, what happens when the two collide????? You get one bad Modena!!! Basis of what my build is going to be, looking to get a fast track car from this one... Any comments or concerns?? Edited September 27, 2014 by DrKerry
chunkypeanutbutter Posted August 31, 2014 Posted August 31, 2014 What exactly are you going for? Which body are you using? It'd be nice to see a new car with an old engine instead of vice versa as per normal...
Draggon Posted August 31, 2014 Posted August 31, 2014 That Chevy in the McLaren definitely has a lot more power than the Ferrari.
DrKerry Posted August 31, 2014 Author Posted August 31, 2014 It's going to be the Modena with the McLaren drive train. I have some body work done. The engine is going together. More pics tonight...... It's shaping up pretty good right now.... What exactly are you going for? Which body are you using? It'd be nice to see a new car with an old engine instead of vice versa as per normal... The photo of the black Modena is what I'm basing this off of. It's not going to be exact but that's the idea of the build...
DrKerry Posted August 31, 2014 Author Posted August 31, 2014 Ok, I couldn't wait. Here's some pics.....
jaymcminn Posted September 1, 2014 Posted September 1, 2014 Oooh. Cool idea. Bet this will look wild with the McLaren wheels... will they fit?
DrKerry Posted September 1, 2014 Author Posted September 1, 2014 Not sure I'll be using the McLaren rolling stock. Either aftermarket or modify the Modena rolling stock...
Jeremy Jon Posted September 3, 2014 Posted September 3, 2014 Whoa, talk about your American V8 in an Italian dress! LOL
crazyrichard Posted September 3, 2014 Posted September 3, 2014 pretty interesting .. like if i would ever do a ferrari build (not going to) i would also go crazy .. nice idea's curious on the rest
DrKerry Posted September 27, 2014 Author Posted September 27, 2014 Got some more work done, cut out the front of the chassis pan and flipped it to make it into and air intake for radiator cooling... Rear chassis, cut out extra stuff and fitted to McClaren drive train... Big Block Chevy (McClaren) power plant
DeeCee Posted September 28, 2014 Posted September 28, 2014 I like this idea, was up close and personal with an M8 Mclaren only last week, those engines are monsters, it will definitely go well in the back of the Ferrari.
TFchronos Posted September 28, 2014 Posted September 28, 2014 Awesome project, looking forward to seeing this.
DrKerry Posted September 28, 2014 Author Posted September 28, 2014 Thanks gents, making slow progress on it but it's progress.....
DrKerry Posted October 12, 2014 Author Posted October 12, 2014 Got the engine ready to go in. Lots of hoses and wiring from the McLaren kit. It's getting ready and body work will be starting soon....
vette1955 Posted October 14, 2014 Posted October 14, 2014 Are you serious Kerry?? How can you keep coming up with so many great ideas?? Awesome!!!
