    It's 1940s wheel technology, what do you expect, 205 mm wide tires?

    Actually, I was talking about that as to how much it would spin the wheels.

    Something I hope for since it's rear engine, is a swap that makes it RWD, strips it of most parts, and puts unnecessarily wide tires on it, allowing it to do such massive wheelies that it flips over and the roof caves in

    You mean as in an exhibition wheelstander? I don't think it would be too hard to cram a big V8 up its arse and make it RWD.

    Thank you! I'll take note of it :)
    I agree it does look alot more dieselpunk than steampunk! Originally I wanted the car to be super steampunked design but I decided to balance it with Reality and Fiction like the interior, door handles, trunk handles, and body shape of the car are steampunk, and the rest are reality. :)

    I'm thinking of a super steampunked version of the car like this

    But for now I'm focusing on finishing the stock :)

    It's now a dream come true! :);):cool:

    I think I have better ideas with the engine, what about shove a big merlin V12 up its arse and call that config finished?

    I like the direction its currently going, it has that post ww2, anybody can start a car company with a wild dream like Preston Tucker with the Tucker Torpedo or George Davis with the Davis Divian.

    Those wild dreams are now something that everyone can admire today.
