Mid-Engined, Yamaha Powered, Austin America Custom...CSL?

[Nachtycoupe]

One man's vision of a CSL may not be another's...looks like it would handle like it was on rails though! Snowmobile motor? It's a mish mash but I kinda like it.

You must have a real interesting mind to come up with this, plan it AND build it.

Hats off.

I really like it except for the CVT transmission. I would love to own it. Naah, even with a six-speed manual I wouldn't be seen dead in it. And certainly not alive.

I know! What is that? I am constantly amazed at the ingenuity and creativity that car builders can show when they follow their passion. Obviously this builder has great respect for the BMW CSL. But worked with what he had. Very interesting indeed!
