Street "Legal" Stock Car Body Swap - Roadkill Ep. 46

  • Опубликовано: 24 дек 2015
  • The Roadkill guys finally did what they've been planning for three-plus years! Long ago they bought a late-model circle track race car and planned to drive it to the Deep South, but the car could not be insured because it had no VIN. Solution? Install a body that has a VIN! That's exactly what you'll see in this episode, as a 1970 Chevy Monte Carlo is transformed into the beast now known as the Nascarlo! It even drives on the street! And races on the dirt track! But suffice it to say it does not all end well. Roadkill is powered by Dodge and supported by Eastwood Company, Dickies, and Optima Batteries.

      +DriftTek Mayhem has it's own look but comparing it to the Nascarlo it's just a stock body with some roadkill fixes and Nascarlo on the other hand is a full on Roadkill design car. So I would say that Nascarlo is the best looking car they have built in Roadkill yet and not just fixed car.

      Far easier to take an old muscle car, lower it on stock car looking wheels and tires. U can use miss matched panels, bolt it a few cage bars, do loud exhaust etc. these guys REALLY REALLY know what they are doing and have all the tools/budget, remember they did a motor swap in the snow in the parking lot and drove it home.

    One of my favorite episodes ever. The stockcar is dear to me because I'm pretty sure that's my old engine and transmission in there. I parted out my old race car after a wreck that claimed the life of my good friend and co-driver. The engine and trans (ZZ4 with Jericho) went to a guy who had a dark blue Monte Carlo with unpainted black nose. Interestingly, Freiburger used to store his project cars in our shop at the time too. Small world.

    Early 80's, a couple friends and I towed a '67 Chevelle to Pearsonville Speedway. Enter a $200 "claimer" race. I had never raced in my life. Qualified last. They inverted the start. I was terrified! Finally towards the end of the race, I started pushing the pedal. Had a great time!

      actually, I don't think so. for a balljoint to fail like that, it was probably from it sitting for so long. for a ball joint to fail because of an impact, that car should have taken a pretty good hit.
      so, more than likely, the ball joint just broke after being beat on by them and probably from being rotten.
