You missed the rule-changes on that posting... it was "Girls Rules for Cars", and the correct answer was "it's a white car with pretty wheels, but it will mess up my hair"

Need some kind of limits otherwise anything goes and we'll never be able to answer any of the entries. There are just way to many prototypes and one offs to be practical. Even though you could buy a score of Verons for the value of just one of these cars they still fit the criteria. If you don't know what they are, they still hold the record for the largest engine ever installed in a production car, 12.7 litres. As you can see from the pictures these cars are massive, ranging from 7000-9000 lbs.

Since those don't look like any of the buses that used the Detroit Series 60, I'd have to go with the Bugatti Royale. Also of note is the fact it was an inline 8 cylinder engine. Can you imagine how heavy that crank shaft would have to be to withstand that kind of torque?

I know, each cylinder was as big as the engine in my MG Midget years ago, just amazing. So, any guesses on this car below?

I got no clue...and also couldn't find this thread for the life of me after I'd posted. Had meant to come back and see if I was supposed to post the next car or something and it seemed like the damned thing just up and disappeared. Never thought to look in the garage section.

I just click where it says "view your posts" near the top right under the search window. Well, any guesses on either of the 2 cars waiting?
