Swedish ski star Per Elofsson is known as a car buff and has now started “Project Streetfighterâ€
Elofsson, who has started the training to make it back into the international cross-country ski elite, also has also other projects going.
He has started what he is calling “Project Streetfighter†where he is re-building a Ford Cobra 2003 model. The engine is going to be increased to no less than 800 horsepower.
He is planning on having the car ready for the spring/summer of 2005. The very motor-interested Swede has also bought a fast two-wheeler, Honda Fire Blade 1000cc.
