Horsepower to weight ratio has to be crazy

That thing is loud in so many ways. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

Re: Charley Lillard's Isetta?
 

Ive seen it pull wheelies on Woodward before, easily I might add.

Re: Charley Lillard's Isetta?
 

Definitey the answer to the question that nobody asked.

Re: Charley Lillard's Isetta?
 

If I had that I would go looking for GTO Don to race against his Motion Manx....

Re: Charley Lillard's Isetta?
 

Ford engine in an Isetta? Blasphemy.

Re: Charley Lillard's Isetta?
 

It did have a 215 aluminum Olds in it at one time. I think he calls it a Rover engine now. Same engine.

Re: Charley Lillard's Isetta?
 

Thought the Rover's had Buick engines in them, but hell if I know for sure.

If it's not a Ford, but rather an Olds/Buick... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/cool.gif

Who is Charley Lillard?
The BMW 600 is my car.

Re: Charley Lillard's Isetta?
 

Kurt .... who is Charley is a good question:) He does have an an Isetta but I think it is a few ponies short of yours.

My father was an Isetta dealer in Detroit back in the day... if you can beleive that , an Isetta dealer in Detroit ? Here is a picture of my father and his ... co-workers . You can see all the Isetta photos/Dealer info on the walls.

Your car looks like a lot of fun !

Looks like it would do a wheelie if you leaned against it! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif
Wild looking car!

Re: Charley Lillard's Isetta?
 

Kurt...Let me explain a little bit here...Charley does indeed have an Isetta (which is stock). Charley also loves modified cars...

Charley has a bunch of cool cars (an LS9 in a 69 Camaro for example called the Jackass). He's also owned the Mule, the Red Witch and a host of other cars that you can see pictures of just by searching on the internet for them...

I was just kidding with him using a picture of your Isetta...which was emailed to me from someone that was at the Detroit show...

If you notice...there is a disclaimer in the first post.


I love the fact that you dared to be different... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

Re: Charley Lillard's Isetta?
 

Welcome, Kurt ! Did YOU paint the car https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/cool.gif?
Have you any video of that beast running?
