Wow! Wish the video was longer!

i messaged him and asked for more...and to get back off the car so we can see the whole car..im trying to find out the shop too

I saw that car at Good-Guys Scottsdale last year so a search can probably turn up more pics. It was a big winner. I know I took pics of it.

Car was built by wicked fabrication out of Washington. Amazing car. Owner raced European cars hence some of the styling cues. He has since passed and not sure who owns it now.

Here is some more...

Car was commissioned by Bruce Leven and built by Wicked Fabrication in Auburn, WA, painted by Byers Custom in Auburn, WA. It was a long term project, done over a number of years. It was still owned locally by those who Mr. Leven willed it to last I heard.

Interview with the late owner, Bruce Leven. He had quite a life and legacy. Made a couple fortunes, raced factory Porsches I believe. This interview on another of his cars gives you an idea of his aesthetic.

In the immortal words of Indian Larry, I love the mechanicalness of it. The exposed shifter looked really cool, almost like the one in the Pagani Huayra.

$1.4 mil build..$100k+ paint...crazy money...i love it though..the more i see it..the more i want it

when i first saw it..all i could think is how it has a hard European flair/look..
