Any info on the displacement and horsepower/torque figures?

Must take a mighty sweet suspension system to put that power to the ground

A periscope?
Or maybe a modification of the backup cameras?

Cool in a goofy, comically silly sort of way perhaps, more a cartoon of ridiculous excess than anything else. Aside from blasting forward like an artillery shell, it's probably a pain to drive.

That said, I do love the occassional hot rod sporting the odd V12 tank motor or WWII vintage Packard Merlin engine, now there's ridiculous excess, not some panty-waist station wagon motor fitted with oversized hair dryers :-)

Yeah these cars are about fun and wackiness..you can't be serious and build one of these..that's one of the reason I love them so much.
Harks back to the phone booth car and the Boot Hill Express
