ReconRat Posted May 2, 2010 Report Share Posted May 2, 2010 That looks like the Cheetah kit on a VW? Dunno, there used to be some fantastic kits for VW chassis. Not even sure if it's VW, but I'm guessing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disclaimer Posted May 2, 2010 Report Share Posted May 2, 2010 The whole "Local Motors" Company is a really interesting concept for those that haven't read about them... I suggest you do.Think, Linux -- but if instead of an OS, you were building a vehicle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scruit Posted August 8, 2011 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 (edited) Torque 425 lb-ft @ 1750 rpmHP 265 hp The much torque that low + that little HP = Diesel?EDIT: Website says 430 Horsepower @ 5,900 rpm, not 265hp. Still think it must be a diesel but it doesn't say on the specs page on the website. Edited August 8, 2011 by Scruit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
