I'm betting Aston, not Alston.

Oh it's definitely Alston. He does all the wild Pro Street chassis as he's the main guy for Pro Stock and other full-body drag race cars.

I don't like it at all, and not because I think they ruined a rolls royce, im not a purist and don't care what people do with a RR. The steering wheel and blower are very tacky and I think tubbing a big box like that looks horrible I'd think the same if it was a lincoln continental. I will confess that I think tubbed street rods are tacky to begin with but at least these tacky items all work together on a street rod but this is just like putting plastic flamingos and gnomes on the white house lawn.

just another opinion

Usually I like that stuff... but that doesn't do anything for me. :\

Welcome to 1985! Hopelessly out-of-date for a fresh build tho. Honestly, couldn't they think of anything better to do with an old roller? Maybe find a wrecked bently Turbo for a drivetrain swap? Hell an LS1 and decent suspension in a stock body would be awesome! Jimbob:I got me a Rolls Royce, whatcha reckon we should do with it? Billybob:Lets put that old Hemi in it an, make us a show car like whats we saws in the autorama back in '85 when we was young'uns!

I'd be way more impressed if they had put that big honking blower on the Rolls/Bentley V8. As it is, it really could've been pretty much any old body on there. There's not a lot of Rolls left, inside or out.
