would love to see one let alone hear it in action







Do you mean CORD?. I think it was the first car with pop up headlights.

MB had the 540K in the 30's that had a supercharger which engaged at full throttle. Original ones are worth millions. Plenty of replicas with weird engines though
Yeah I forgot about the serpentine belt. That could work. Of course mounting and plumbing it will be a very interesting exercise for sure. Theres a guy on you tube" project mayhem" building a 5.0 Ford with two of these blowers.
