What if you could chose the look of any car you loved and put into it a fule efficient, low cost easy maintenance engine? what would your dream car be?


This has been on my mind for quite some time now, due to the environmental issues that fuel guzzlers create and due to alternative energy sources that are emerging and seem to be greener ways to get around…and to top that the rising fuel costs have made these thoughts even more persistent. you could have it all - ride around in classic style or whatever style makes you happy, with a fule efficient environmentally friendly car.
And Probably, in some cases, although it wouldn’t be inexpencive at all - it might turn out cheaper than acctually buying the original dream classic car….
Kris Palmer, author of Motormouth has a post about a tribute car his friend is having built - based on the BMW 507 that was produced in the fifties in very limited numbers (around 250)
So He set out getting a car built that is pretty close to the look of the BMW 507 in look with a modern day running engine, for easy maintenance.
