The “Grinch” was built by Ringbrothers and unveiled at SEMA. The design of this car is breathtaking with its visual effect. It doesn’t scream at you but simply whispers convincingly in your direction. During the transformation many body modifications were made including flared wheel openings, extended rocker panels, quarter panels and fenders. The gas cap and breather was fabricated on the driver’s side rear quarter which is hidden under the rear deck lid. It’s outfitted with a custom carbon fiber hood and rear spoiler. The body is laser straight with precise gaps throughout. The car was finished in a gorgeous shade of Green and the paint work is spectacular. The entire exterior was recently ceramic coated for the ultimate protection. All of the glass is new and the window trim was removed for a smooth appearance. Some of the exterior custom features include hood pins, RB door hinges, RB carbon fiber/chrome mirrors, RB door handles, black chrome bumpers, Harley Davidson headlights and aluminum taillight bezels. The car sits perfectly on new custom Forgeline center lock wheels and Nitto NT05 tires that are 295-35-18 on the front and 335-30-19 on the rear.
The custom Italian Gray leather interior was done by The Recovery Room and looks amazing. Some of the interior custom features include a one-of-a-kind dash, Classic Instruments green gauges, tilt steering column, Billet Specialties steering wheel, one-of-a-kind door panels, Corbeau seats, BMW carpeting, RB shifter, push button start and air conditioning. The interior rear space was dedicated to the custom sound system which sounds incredible. The trunk compartment has been boxed and upholstered to match the interior.
The engine compartment is highly detailed with many custom features throughout. The firewall, inner fenders, radiator support were fabricated and finished in satin green with black appointments. It’s equipped with RB black aluminum hood hinges, billet and stainless hardware. The car is powered by a Wegner Motorsports LS3 V8 w/ 620HP. The custom made metal intake manifold was reversed with a throttle body and air box that draws air in from the cowl. The engine breathes through custom RB wrapped headers and a Flow Master exhaust system that exits through the rear valance. The engine is cooled by a B-Cool aluminum radiator with electric fan and Pro-Werks overfill canister. It has a custom radiator and battery cover. The engine is coupled to a Bowler TKO Tremec 5-speed manual transmission. It’s equipped with ACT twin disc clutch for smooth shifting. The power is transferred to a Detroit Speed Ford 9” POSI rear end.
The undercarriage is highly detailed with many custom features throughout. It’s equipped with a Fuel Safe aluminum fuel cell that was custom installed. It’s also equipped with a Detroit Speed Hydro Formed front subframe, front sway bars, 4-link rear suspension, coilover shocks and Wilwood four wheel power disc brakes. This car has been driven over 4,000 miles including two Power Tours and it’s proven to be very reliable.
