    I love it! This car looks wonderful! Maybe once you have the I4 version finished, you could try a steam powered version like an old Stanley or Doble steam car?

    BeamNG needs some cool steam cars!

    Lowered the hoodline of the car, making the car look more modern.

    When it's ready-ish. That will probably take some time.

    yes, it's ingame already but the mesh and jbeam for it are not ready.
    Keep in mind that towing anything is hard already :D you can't take off on the hills of belasco with a caravan for instance

    How about reading the thread?
    A 5.0 doesn't. Fit.

    Blijo seems to have a thing against engine swaps, just like in his Procar, so there's no chance he's gonna engine swap it. Sorry to squash your hopes brotha.

    I don't know where you got that from but there are swaps planned. And I do like engine swaps, as long as they are done properly, so no ugly i4 in the middle of the procar with no connecting meshes for instance...
    So don't think I hate them. A V8 doesn't fit without a different firewall and other parts...

    No, you all get it when it's ready. Not before that time, apart from testers.
    No.

    Well in your procar some dude wanted to make a mod for vtec engines for it, and some other people asked for swaps and you seemed VERY strictly against it, so I figured that attitude would carry over.

    On that note though, I wonder if @hog0005's Gavril TCM inline 4 diesel could fit in the engine bay.
