A friend pointed me to this and claimed it was a hoax. If it is who the heck would make up a fake article like this? Who has that much time and what is the motive?

Sorry if it's old.

Lol, the article look well written, but there are no pics of the engine.

Why would someone do that? I mean write a fake article?

considering the author died in 1986,was not a carnut per se, or an engineer or wrote for a car magazine, and considering this car never happened last year, i think it entirely possible we have had out leg pulled to the max...good job.
