Here's one you never see, a 1936 Pontiac custom coupe with a Dodge Viper V10 at $55K in AZ. This is pre war before cars took a back seat to the war effort. Uber rare, and it takes a lot of fabrication to build a car like this. Imagine building your Firebird with zero places to get new parts. It looks cool and is prolly wicked fast. Gripes: 1) Why put a "Poncho" decal on a Dodge engine? A SBC would be a better choice than the original engine, and while the V10 Dodge is cool, just put plain valve covers on it, because the one thing it's not, is a Poncho engine. 2) Driving this car on a highway is going to spit rocks at other cars with almost the entire rear tires sticking out from under the body, and the entire front tires sticking out with zero guards to stop rocks. This is a safety thing and I would not want to be behind this car on the highway. Plusses: It has seat belts. So many of these older cars don't, and while I may drive a car without seat belts, I wouldn't have a passenger next to me. The interior looks nice. You have to start with basically nothing an a 90 year old car, so good job there. The undercarriage has bookoo bucks put into it. Shiney and nice.
