Wow! This car looks like it jumped out of a Syd Mead painting. And I’ll bet dry ice comes wafting out when you open the door. All that’s missing is a soundtrack by Harold Faltermeyer — and some lasers.
Originally developed by Quincy-Lynn Enterprises, the Centurion is built for high-efficiency — that’s right. Is, not was. You can still purchase the plans from Robert Q. Reilly Enterprises. The concept combines a Triumph Spitfire chassis, suspension and transmission with a 17-hp Kubota diesel engine. Obviously, you won’t be setting any speed records with the Centurion — but you just might set some fuel economy records.
