Merlincar

So you say you need a two-door wagon with an airplane engine in it? Of course you do! The Merlincar was built in the 60s with a Ford Capri-inspired body and a 27-liter Boulton Paul Bolliol trainer engine that produced somewhere in the neighborhood of 850 hp (some reports say over 1000). A GM TH400 automatic controls the gearing. Only one was ever made and it still exists and is reportedly driven.
