Saw this at a car show the other week. I will post the other pictures seperate from these. This is a nice setup. I had to do a double take on this in person too. Maybe others have seen this before but I have not. Note the lack of a throttle body/air intake hose? I guess it is at the back of that filter. The valve covers had the word black something or another on them.
The Hot Rod Power Tour came to town, I knew nothing about it, found out while we were getting liquored up when they all started driving by. Only had my crap 2MP camera with me also_Oh well, enjoy.

Camera died man. I have never seen a blower setup like this before. I would not have the nerve to cut it open, unless they make a version like that. It was a very custom car for sure though. I could not get people from around it to take better pictures.

Yeah, its an 03 Cobra motor fitted into the 69 chassis... I have the Hot Rod magazine that this was in, and in one word, the car is amazing.

The entire front suspension has been converted so the shock towers are flipped in, and have the coil-over system mounted down below the motor. The rear end is a maze of braces, and some kind of adjustment arms I'm not familiar with.

One day, I'll strive to do the same.
