This 1972 Honda Z600 has been tubbed for drag duty and now runs a Ford nine inch rear and a built Chevette 1.6. Estimated to weigh about 1,100 pounds, the seller expects its 125 HP to be good for 12 second all-motor runs. While we dig the concept and wild appearance of this build, we can’t help but think it’d be much cooler with a CBR1100 motor or similar Honda sportbike motor up front. Find it here on Craigslist in Abingdon, Maryland for $5,500. Special thanks to BaT reader Mark D. for this submission.

The car retains a mostly stock Honda dash, and the big center-console mounted shift lever operates a Saginaw 4-speed. It’d be cool to see an under-dash mounted lever similar to the OEM setup operating a sequential bike gearbox.

Here’s the Chevy lump. Build details include a polished and balanced crank, forged 9.5:1 compression pistons, a Comp cam, ported and polished heads as well as more detailed in the ad. Seems like a lot of expensive work for a modest return.

A real head-scratcher for sure. What kind of motor would you use to get the 26″ wide rears spinning?
