Anyone Know What This Is?

[ARDrummond25]

Firstly, sorry if there’s a dedicated car spotting thread and I should have posted this there. I promised I did look and I didn’t see one. I’m new here, forgive me.

With that out of the way, I was out for a cruise today and I saw this thing. Do any of you know what it is? It looked like a kit and it has only a single center seat. Says “One” on the side.

it looks a bit SINN.ish but I don't think so. Pretty cool looking though. I bet it's a ***** on speed bumps

No speed bumps in the area I saw this in up in the Santa Cruz mountains. Although the roads have plenty of ... “character”.

Woulda thought ultima but The rear inlets arent the same

Don't recognize it, don't think it's anything from the Italians or germans. Most likely an LS powered kit car. We have a few around our area that sort of resemble that.

Don't know what it is but I love roof scoops!

My feet would be at the front splitter as tall as i am in that thing lol

Okay I did some internet scouring and discovered it’s one of these: Superlite SL-C

they are indeed kits and start at $50k and come pretty much ready to go minus and engine and transmission. So probably $80k built unless you go really crazy.

given how much attention it was getting, I bet the owner is very satisfied with their decision.

I just configured one the way I’d want to order one and it wound up ballooning to a $100k kit that was still short and LS and builder. So might push $130k all in.

i dont Think so.....Look at th4 differences between the body panels in front of the rear wheel

Definitely a Superlite SLC . The owner (Mesa) has done quite a few modifications to the body to suit his needs. It has a monster engine combo as well.

there were several body combos you could choose from. Different base styles as well as many configurations of trim. It even comes as an open cockpit if you want.

Also since this is a Mustang forum I’ll point out you don’t have to get an LS, they have a few options, one of which is a Coyote motor. So many folks here already have their donor car!

I wouldn't put an LS in my lawnmower

Superlite Cars also makes the Superlite GT-R. Similar chassis but configured to accept the body directly from the Robertson Racing Ford GT that ran in the American LeMans Series and finished on the podium at LeMans in 2011!

Would love to hear more about the engine configuration, is that an intercooler for a TT application?

ps: I thought I saw a Ferrari! Very nice garage.

 

[ARDrummond25]

The GTR can accept all sorts of fun engines.

Bet it's a damn fun car... looks like the photo was taken on HWY 9, in front of Alice's? It's been years since I've been up that way. Used to do HWY 9 cruises with friends here and there, but it can get pretty crowded.

Wow, good eye that’s exactly where it was. I was actually just going to turn around and come back down the mountain when the Superlite caught my eye so I drove through the parking lot to snap a pic.

The SL-C is my DREAM build - I’ve built so many versions (on paper) over the last 10 years I’ve lost count! Thanks for sending me down the rabbit hole again!! Now if I could just stop plowing money into my ‘stang
