It’s like the Griswold’s Family Truckster, but uglier.

Ugly isn’t important when you have 27 litre displacement.

Its ugly and have a stupid sound and that smoke from exaust lol…

Take an aircraft engine, designed to run at a constant speed at 250mph, at heights varying from sea level to 30000 ft.

Derate it, then water cool it. Change the supercharger from a 2 stage to a single stage from a tank.

Dial it all in and get it to run with an automatic gearbox and a torque converter,

Add bodywork and other road going electrical and mechanical ancillaries,

Then tune it for the purpose. A bit of smoke when its cold (and that engine would ALWAYS be cold) would be the absolute least of your worries.
