The Bradley GT is a car born in the late 70s kit car craze. It used a Volkswagen Beetle chassis and the body was entirely fiberglass.<\/p>\n

The cars had sports car features like flip-up headlights and an open air feel.<\/p>\n

Offered as an assembled car, or a DIY-kit, Bradley GTs vary somewhat in final specification.<\/p>\n

Typically though typically they are powered by air-cooled Volkswagen motors.<\/p>\n

This red example is not typical. There\u2019s no air-cooled motor to be found here. Instead there\u2019s a first generation Hayabusa motorcycle engine suspended between the rear tail lights.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

It \u2018fits\u2019 but it is certainly not covered or subtle by anymeans. The motor is backed by a custom Rancho transaxle with a hardened input staff.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s also been tuned with a Power Commander and \u2018autotune\u2019.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Inside the gauge cluster has been brought over to support the new power plant and transaxle.<\/p>\n

The interior also features a heavy amount of red and black to match the exterior.<\/p>\n

The owner states the car was professionally built and is asking $9000 for the car to pursue a business venture.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re curious, yes, it does run and drive as\u00a0seen below.<\/p>\n
