Scout 2, 2wd, 2 Engines

I looked at this ad and thought "that's a pretty cool street rod Scout"....then I got a look under the hood. Two V6s? WTF? I love unusual engines in street rods, and thinking outside the box, but this guy kicked the box over a cliff!
This thing needs a blown big block.

I have to admit the stretched/chopped Scout body does look good, but I would have used a more conventional engine to power it. There may be a reason there are only 8 miles on the build.

That is a strange looking engine set up!

 

Might be the only scout I've liked the look of haha.

 

It needs a Jaguar V12 under the hood:

 

I dig it.. I like weird $h1t..

 

Just because you can, doesn't mean your should.
When you get all done, you still got nothing.

 

Meh. I like it, but I don't get particularly excited about trailer queens.

 

I think it is well executed. The body lines flow and work. Compared to some of the other "custom" rigs out there, this is well built.

 

I love it. A for effort and execution.. who does that?

I don’t want it of course.. but it would be great for someone else.!

 

a few years ago . I posted a hot rod mail jeep with two engines
would I own it . no
but I didn't build it ether
