One of my favorite car builders id Bob Norwood, Doom Porsche, Can Am, and more. He has built some Bonneville cars that a bit controversial over the years and my recent WIP is in that vain. I started a Ferrari 365 BBttii, twin turbo, intercooled, NOS injected, flat 12, midship, Norwood is know for taking slightly expensive cars and putting 1100hp engines in the, like a 288GTO with a twin blown Big Block Chevy in the front!! These are LSR cars and I love this kind of innovative engineering.. so here are some pics of my project

I used a Revell 365 BB converted a Monogram Mythos flat 12 engine with a transverse transaxle to a weisman transaxle, moved it forward in the chassis, the twin turbo and intercooler set up is done just waiting some more chassis work, a slight modification to the front of the body by opening up the vent across the nose is done, current work is mostly getting the interior sorted but I am almost ready for paint and final assembly and detailing is very close...more to come..here is a link to my research and build album on Fotki. public.fotki.com/pmodwrks/1-1-365-bb-lsr-wip/page6.html there are some great Norwood cars and info in that album so check it out and I am sure you will get where I am coming from. I am really enjoying this and will be building at least 3 more LSR Ferrari's a 308 with unknown engine, a Enzo with a drag style blower and a Twin Turbo F50, I am thinkin these will make a great display when all is done..
