Since I was a kid, my dream was to rebuild a 1968 Dodge Charger into the most incredible car ever built. In 2011, I started that journey. With Tom Nelson of Nelson Racing Engines at the helm and his incredible team of world class fabricators, the MAXIMUS was born. The goal was to build the car around an incredible power plant that would generate more than 2000 horsepower while aesthetically retaining the iconic vintage muscle car's identity. Along the way, we would end up designing and building custom systems that surpass super car specifications.
⁃ MAXIMUS has been built by hand from scratch around a patented twin turbo 9.4 Liter 572 inch 2250 PLUS VERIFIED HORSEPOWER ALL-ALLOY HEMI engine. The engine was dyno’d at 2250HP at 25 lbs of boost. Keep in mind, this engine can handle up to 38 lbs of boost.
⁃ The body is hand forged with over 16,000 hours in custom metal work to obtain the final ALL-METAL wide body design. There is NO paint on the car. What you see is hand forged metal underneath clear coat. It shines like a diamond in the sunlight!
⁃ MAXIMUS boasts extreme performance: 0-60 in 1.8 sec and. 0-160 in 8 sec.
⁃ Custom suspension, exhaust, traction control systems, and computer systems. All computerized aspects are hidden and can be exposed by a custom "James Bond” robotic dashboard which holds the original AM Radio exposing custom technology on an iOS based touch screen.
⁃ MAXIMUS is a testament to the extremes in car design, aesthetics and function. No one could ever create this car again, as the vast amount of our copyrighted technology and designs are unobtainable, and would take over a decade to complete.
⁃ MAXIMUS can be seen in the end scene of Fast & Furious 7 where they bid farewell to Paul Walker. That footage also was used in the world wide #1 song “See You Again" video. Maximus has been asked for a return in Furious 9 and 10. MAXIMUS is currently on the September 2019 cover of Hot Rod Magazine and slated for a fold out shoot for 2020. Maximus has also appeared on the cover of MOPAR Muscle. MAXIMUS was voted best car at SEMA in 2013 and became a viral car online with millions of fans. Mattel and Jada Toys have made and currently sell toy versions of MAXIMUS in 1:55, 1:32, and 1:24 sizes. MAXIMUS has been computer modeled for use in an upcoming Forza Racing game release. MAXIMUS is currently the subject of a multimillion dollar auto documentary about the burgeoning field of high end Automotive Art, that Netflix is co-sponsoring.
