T1GHT WH!P$ TROPHY TRIVIA

In the next few weeks I'm going to post 59 different trivia questions

of all different forms on C&G. Multiple choice, photo identification,

photo match up & even some true or false. Some questions will be

multiple part and others a simple one word answer.

At the end of the 59 individual trivia thread questions all the winners

will be added up and a trophy will be mailed via the USPS to the

over all winner of the first annual Tight Whips Trivia Trophy.

Best of luck to all, I encourage everyone to participate.

T.W.T.T. Thread #47

I'm thinking of a car that was pretty revolutionary in its day.

Although it was powered by a 7 litre V8 with a very unique

transmission the plan was originally to have a V12 under the

hood. In terms of horsepower & weight it is very similar to

the 2006 BMW 750i but overall length is 221 inches.

Complete guess... Vector WX3

I think it is the 1966-67 Cadillac Brougham/Calais/De Ville Fleetwood Series.

Had a 429 inch V-8 (approx 7l) making about 340 hp and weighed about 4200-4300 pounds.

The transmission was the genious Turbo Hydra-Matic, Fully automatic, improved torque converter type with variable stator. Converter could multiply engine torque for increased driving thrust to drive wheels during acceleration in any gear (low, intermediate or high).
