Anyone seen the Z powered Highboy yet?

Came across an interesting amalgamation while looking over JNC's coverage of the SEMA show. It's a '32 Ford Highboy powered by a VG30. It was built by a Nissan employee, Jack Taylor using the drivetrain from a 300ZX. IRS and all.

Here's a link to the pictures over on JCN's website:

Cool!

Like any kid with a box and a marker...it can be anything from a rocket ship, to a tank, to a race car.

 

The deuces are pretty much the "cardboard box" of hot rods. You can do just about anything you want to it, and it'll still be cool. :)

 

Oh...and the term "highboy", in roadster speak, refers to the body sitting on top of the frame. A "lowboy" has the frame channeled through the body.
