Killer Hot Rod

I have an affinity for hot rods and muscle cars, not the tuner garbage that people think is so hot today. Double Trouble Hot Rod is one awesome hot rod. 

 What could possibly make this 1927 T-Bucket any better?

What is so stupid about a T-Bucket. They epitomize what a hot rod is, especially this one.

No tuner could ever aspire to this or even have half of it's power. 

If it only had one engine.

What would you say if he stuck 2 more blowers on those engines?

that the engine gets in the way of your ability to see the road

Wanna see a much cooler hot rod?

The new blowers add more HP to the Double Trouble, hence me asking what could make the original even better. I don't know about a hot rod using non-American parts. There is something about American iron that just screams hot rod, then again, I am an old car guy who grew up through the muscle care era and miss cars like the Super Bee, GTO, Road Runner, Charger  Daytona, Camaro and the Mustang to name a few.  

how does the transmission work on that thing w/ 2 engines driving it? and i agree.. it looks stupid but i definitely appreciate it from the "we build it because we could" standpoint. it's always fun to see that kinda stuff. comp_atkins

I would suppose there are gears of some sort attached to the crank that engage a flywheel on the tranny, kind of similar to how jet engines are used in helicopters. With the current set up with the 2 engines and 4 blowers, it idles at 35MPH on it's own.
