I think this isn't that easy. But then again, I might be terribly wroong. Prove me wrong and win 1 point for guessing this unique car's model and builder.

Been here for far too long. Time to move it up to Experts!

Hmm... Lego Technic?

[Joao Gois]

  That'd be fun, but no .

[Arunas]

Is it a completed car? And is it a concept car or prototype?

[Joao Gois]

It's a completed, fully functional car. No concept / prototype.

[Tuckeroo]

It's the framework of the Hurst Hairy Oldsmobile from 1966 which use two Oldsmobile Toronado engines and transaxles at each end.

[Joao Gois]

Yep, that's the one! Not so hard after all...

Anyway, although a classic way of getting power, this dragster apparently worked pretty well!

There are some of us on this forum who have no prejudice about classic ways of getting power and cubic inches.

Me included!
