Car is from Garage van Herck in Belgium. Looking for a build thread to see if they converted it to RWD. I would assume so but want to know for sure. Car sounds bad *** coming down the straight.

Isn't it obvious from the engine shots at the beginning that it is RWD

is it 2 cars? the car in the beginning looks like it has a vista roof- and where is that available? then at the end of the video it is just a normal roof painted with the stripe.
