On the left "bonnet" side you can see only 6 direct exhaust outlets from the outside.

Here´s the engine:

I am not an expert for engines in general, but I think it features some kind of standard US V8-engine.

Hint:

if you find out the type of planes the parts were used from you have big chances to find this one...

Not a fighter, I think it was a trainer plane.

"T-28" ist the name of this car.

However this is pro-level so I want at least to know the builder/=owner´s name here.

LOCKED for Wendax to have a chance to find out more.
