Re: V8 spider on ebay
Somebody has certainly put a lot of time and effort into it, especially the front suspension, but I think you'll find it has a Ford 2.3 litre single OHC 4 cylinder engine it.

Re: V8 spider on ebay
shall we pick it apart? I don't like the wing, nor the rear wheels hanging out of the wheelwells. And, it sits too high. I do like the motor though
Re: V8 spider on ebay
Well I'd rather see a blower sticking out of the hood than a huge wing screwing up the beautiful lines of the boot. Still wouldn't mind the Ford power plant though. Now a real set of wheels and tires properly proportioned and installed would help a lot. As far as 10G's goes, I will be surprised if he gets offered half of that.
Re: V8 spider on ebay
I think it's hideous. I would be laughing hysterically if I saw that thing on the road with the Honda RR spoiler and the hoopti-wagon looking wheels.
Re: V8 spider on ebay
This is the result of an unfortunate accident involving a Ford Pinto, a Fiat Spider and a Honda Rice car...this may happen to you if you don't come to a complete stop at the intersection
I especially like his comment how he tries to convince the buyer that it will only appreciate in value ...If it is worth so much money, why doesn't he do us all a favor and keep it parked in the garage were it will look the best

Re: V8 spider on ebay
Would have actually been pretty cool if he had left the exterior totally stock -- kind of a sleeper. As it is i have to agree that it is pretty cheesy to say the least.
