Not being a car person, I thought this would be not that interesting, but found I spent some time looking around the photo Tom.
Looks like a powerful beast Tom. I'm really impressed with the 4 post hoist...:th3:

just a wild guess is it a camaro either way its tuff i love my v8 thanks for sharing.
I'm not much of a car person either (F1 being an exception). This is a mates car - some type of American automobile with around 800hp. 6 second quarter mile. It was on the hi tech hoist to get a mono bar fitted, because he did a mono at the last race and damaged the car when the front returned to earth. They say you can make a small fortune from motor racing...........
Rick is not a car person !! Mongo is a mad revhead ratbag (but a safe and thoughtful one he would like to think)
Mongo too studied this image for a while. Question : how do they get this rig down off the 44 gal drums after it is completed ??

found myself asking the same question, i'm surprises the drums handle that weight (ie. tyres aren't directly on the drum rims where the drums would be strongest.)

That looks safe :eek:
it may not conform to OH&S in the strictest sense. the car however is very light. it is stripped, and the shell is fibreglass.
Couldn't he have found a sign writer that could spell ? ;)
Nice shot, interesting subject matter.
The original company sponsor was named Pheonix, and yes that differs from the usual spelling.
