Jeff Lilly Restorations unveils the "Moparz" concept car, we combined the best from the past to bring forth the ultimate Super Rod to set the standard for feel, sound, looks and the smell of burning rubber. Are you ready to drive this 1000 cubic inch beast? Can you say BIG-HEMI ?

We are pressing the pedal to the Moparz metal on this one off creation as we love the Mopar Muscle cars with their distinct curb appeal, so we took the best of each and combined them to flow in harmony from the different body styles like the Challenger, Charger, Cuda and others along with some tasteful custom touches. It looks the way we would have designed it to be from 1970 to 2008.

Moparz will have a custom chassis to house the world's only 1000 cubic inch Hemi V-8 engine, "see engine specs below" 6 speed tranny, one off independent suspension system front and rear with electric power brakes and 14 inch rotors set behind the one off "Cuda Bullet" wheels featuring no visual lug nuts. The interior will be built with custom one off seats, pistol grip shifter with custom inlaid wood and a Black Chrome shifter arm. A/C, killer stereo, modern dash and door panel treatments etc, The exterior will feature a custom fabbed Charger style concealed head light system, repositioned Cuda hood bulges, Cuda lower valance air grilles, Recessed Challenger style tail lights, The roof will be chopped and raked at the front 2 inches from stock, the front and rear windshield will be refitted from the interior side to allow a rolled edge opening with no chrome moldings. The rear qter panels will be slightly longer to accommodate a custom transition spoiler that wraps slightly around the rear light assembly. The Bumpers will be cut and fitted close to the body with the door handles, locks and gas cap removed and smoothed. In addition other Mopar models and their specific treatments will be added.

MOPARZ will house a very large Hemi, It has never been built before but after doing some serious Math and combining the right Hemi engine parts" see below" it will enable us to build the Only Known HEMI with 1000 cubic inches in a V8 package, pumping mega horsepower through a 4 inch oval exhaust system and the sound will be like no other ever heard. With an insane Mopar like this, what else would you expect? If you are to be the future Owner, Call Jeff to discuss Your Muscular Future (210-695-5151)

I noticed that the engine is to be built by Jim Oddy Race Engines.
Oddy's shop builds a lot of big-inch alcohol pro-mod 426-based hemi
motors now. I'm not sure if many people know or remember this,
but Jim Oddy and Hemis go way, way back. Jim was noted for his
string of 354 early hemi powered Gassers back in the '60's and
particulasrly a certain blown 354 powered Austin sedan that he built
and raced and - honestly, I am not exagerating here - used to regularly
spin the engine to 10,0000-plus rpm - and get it to make power
and live at those speeds! Back around '69 or '70 or so Hot Rod
Magazine did an article on Oddy and his Austin Gaser and 10,0000 rpm
354 hemi where he shared *some* of his valve train and bottom-end
secrets that hes used to acomplish this. Can you even imagine the
valve train of a hemi running at 10,000 rpm??!!
