Seeing a Smart on the road is usually not a spectacular scene, as they will just sneak through traffic without making a scene.

But not this particular Smart ForTwo, which will grab attention long before you get to actually see the car.

Ok, to be completely honest, this is as much a Smart as it is a Chevrolet. The owner actually took a Chevy big block V8 and fitted it to a custom frame. As luck would have it, the custom chassis was a perfect fit for a Smart ForTwo body. Apart from that, a driver’s seat and some gauges are pretty much all there is to the build.

Finishing the peculiar Smart, the owner then took it to the No Limit Raceway in Morocco, and tried it out a bit. So far, the owner didn’t set any records in his Chevy powered Smart, but adjusting and fine-tuning is still happening. I root for the monster in disguise, and just below I linked the video of a run. Enjoy the V8 Chevy engine roaring in a Smart ForTwo.
