Not mine. So guess when DRClock left PA for "retirement" to WV, there was a void in PA kit car building that had to be filled. It's not a Wiley Coyote based company (to my knowledge) but it is called ACMECarPartsCO in Cumberland, PA. The Thunder Ranch for sale is apparently their demonstrator. I do like the clean formed interior and price is right for such a clean build $24500. Looks like they have lots of used parts plus several Wabash (?) gas heaters.

Webasto, or Eberspacher.
I think this is the one they had at Carlisle for several years.
Something just not right about the interior to me. Maybe just the sparse door panels and the rear parcel shelf looking like a rear parcel shelf ....
interior looks utilitarian,,get by and thats it.
Acme is always at Carlisle. Usually, they bring racks and racks of VW parts. This year they didn't.
The long tube going to the gas pedal is kind of weird.
This year ACME had a small tent with some items and left the racks and 18 wheeler back at their store. That Speedster was the demo ACME cut ties with TR and affiliates and with the car being so sparse it is a tough sell at that number.

No provision for a top ( roof of any kind ) makes the rear seat area look sparse. Strange treatment to the forward tunnel area looks out of whack too.
Ah - guess that's what makes it look so spacious inside! Needs some contrasting coco mats to make interior pop a bit.

I blew that photo up as much as I could without distorting it and it looks like two cables coming in from under the trunk.
Any thoughts people??
The two cable tubes are accelerator and clutch...actually this is a clean slate and could easily be made into a looker with minimal investment above whatever you could get it for. ACME does do nice build and engine work...a diamond in the rough. They claim to have the top and side curtains. IMHO ...redo some of the dash trim, script and dash brow to match, nipple wheel caps cocoa mats, redo the door top rails, badges, Porsche and Speedster scripts, bumper deco's , hood handle , replace the steering wheel, contrasting seat belts and some pedal covers about $1,500 will cover it .

Well ....get on it, young Man . :-)
Never get the money out of it, TR name aka McB' doesn't have the best rep.
