Is this the meanest 1961 Buick Skylark you have ever seen?

This beautiful 1961 Buick Skylark belongs to Royce, who is also the man who build this custom car at his home. It’s  388 ci SBC engine with a th400 w/Gear Vendor transmission. That giant thing sticking off the top of the engine? Oh, thats a 8-71 Hampton Blower.
