1997 Hunter MKII Roadster<\/h2>\n
\n

The Hunter MKII Roadster, completed in 1997, was designed with the goal of producing a very high performance street car. An all carbon fiber composite body covers an aluminum tube frame chassis providing superior rigidity in a light weight package. Power was originally provided by a fuel injected 502 big block Chevrolet with a dry sump lubrication system backed by a 5 speed manual.<\/span><\/p>\n
