Corona RT142 wrote on Tue, 30 November 2004 10:22 | There's a guy in Vic with a Rolls Royce merlin engine in an old gm, produces 2500hp and is joined through a two speed powerglide. It hasd a top speed of around 200km/ph and is done up like the mustang fighter planes on the outside with paints.
It is actually registered as they had it on the today and showed it with plates and him driving on the road. The car is driven by the backs seats and all controls had to be relocated back there because of the size of the engine. I think they are around 27L.

That baby is awesome... It's been in lots of magazines... Its got so many gauges in the cockpit and takes a long time to start. But when it does, it really goes. The best thing is the fact that it is street legal. That is the true feat. I think it lives in Ballarat or Castlemaine, can't remember which.

Are we talking about final objection? Or are there 2 merlin-powered cars registered in australia?
I thought Final Objection was built by the CRS guys...maybe that's in Vic...I always thought it was around Newcastle or something though...
I think Final Objection has the guinness record for the most powerful street registered vehical...
