Not even close. THE coolest car ever built in my opinion would be...

With 3000 horsepower on tap from the supercharged 27-litre V12 Merlin engine, this is the most powerful street machine in the world. Originally fitted to P-51 Mustang fighter planes in World War 2, it would be the world's biggest understatement to say that it was "a bit of work" to get it to fit the 1955 Chevrolet B-210 coupe.

Check out a few of the pics below and you may get some idea of how much thought and planning went in to this car. It is an amazing engineering feat and yes, the number plates are real. It is registered in Victoria, Australia.

















After selling up Castlemaine Rod Shop (www.rodshop.com.au), Rod and Carol Hadfield are going to go on a bit of a holiday. That was the easy decision, the hard part was figuring out which cars to take!

After being practically chained to their business for the last 20 years due to its massive success, Rod and Carol will now be able to go on holiday and enjoy themselves knowing that they don't have to rush back to get to work on Monday.
