Ringbrothers' new Strode crams 1,100hp V8 into a carbon fibre-bodied classic 🤯
Some PHers will doubtless recall Ringbrothers’ handiwork. Jim and Mike Ring were the restomodding heavyweights behind the Hellcat V8-powered Dodge Charger that we were. Let’s just say when it comes to making old stuff new, they’ve got game. And to prove it for the umpteenth time, the tuning firm has rocked up at this year’s SEMA show with four unique creations.
Which one you prefer is very much a personal choice, but we’re going to plump for the 1969 Chevy Camaro, dubbed ‘Strode’. Much of the 6,500 hours it took to build were spent perfecting its bespoke carbon fibre body. Now five inches wider than standard and sporting a hand-fabricated roll cage , it is intended to show off its makers expertise with composite.
Of course, if square is your thing, you might find yourself partial to ‘Bully’. That’s the name given to the team’s 1972 K5 Blazer, and it rather lives up to it. The quirk here, beyond another highly modified look, is the 6.8-litre V8 the tuner has wedged in and then extracted 1,200hp from courtesy of another oversized supercharger. To make sense of that output, the Blazer gets chunky Dana axles front and back, plus four-link suspension that deploys two Fox coilovers per wheel.
Alternatively, you might like the way Ringbrothers have nestled another set of HRE wheels under the arches of its 1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1. “The Mach 1 has always been an aggressive-looking car, and we wanted to add to those classic good looks with subtle but critical changes,” co-owner Jim Ring noted of ‘Patriarc’. Subtle means going out two inches in width and lowering the rear quarters.
Finally, for something really special - in case that lot weren’t enough - there’s ‘Enyo’. Or, as the firm puts it, a ‘40s work truck meets Formula 1 racer’. Revealed last, and said to have been in the planning for years, the 1948 Chevrolet Pickup is powered by a 1,000hp big-block race engine and looks terrific on huge slicks. Obviously, this has been modified in just about every way possible, including a single-piece carbon fibre floorpan and cantilevered independent suspension all-round.
