Well known designer and graphic artist "Bob Thrash"
rendered the radical concept drawing &
overall design of the exterior, interior, trunk and
exhaust.
Scott Schneckloth of "Sniks Rod & Custom" of Manly, Iowa
was chosen to hand hone and radically transform this
1957 Chevy from the drawing boards into a "One of a
Kind" Show Car equipped with a 1800 Horsepower Twin
Turbo Big Block Chevy! Only a small portion of the
factory body has remained original metal, whereas,
literally everything has been scratch built and/or
fabricated entirely by hand. The total "One Off" chassis
was based on a C5 Corvette.
"Andy Leach" (who worked for Troy Trapanier during the
build of the 2007 Detroit Autorama Ridler Winner)
performed the design/fabrication on the Suspension,
Grill and All Drive train. "Jake Murrary" did the
programs for the Brake System, Calipers and Rotors.
"Nelson Racing Engines" of NRE-TV performed the
technical design, assembly, design install and assembly
of the mind boggling "1800 Horsepower - Twin Turbo - Big
Block Chevy"! You can find Nelson Racing Engines on the
web here >

the engine dyno testing is here >>
