Supercharged PRV Hot Rod ???

Postby Dangermouse » Thu Jun 25, 2015 1:17 pm

I came across this on another site and unless I am mistaken, which I probably am, it is a PRV based hot rod, with a supercharger (entirely based on the valve cover). Taken at the Nostalgia Nationals, somewhere in the UK. I'm no hot-rod expert, but I though a V8 was the standard choice, so a V6 is a little unusual in itself.

Looking at the car, it has a better HP/Weight ratio than the DeLorean.
