Too much time and money is a great combination when it comes to cars. Tucked away, Dubai-side, in many a slick Sheikh's private collection are some of the wildest rides your sun-baked brain can imagine. You just have to find them. And that's what I like to do, when I'm not kicking back in 7-star luxury or setting fire to vast pools of free petrol, that is.My buddies down at Liberty Motorsports, just outside of Dubai, are always guaranteed to have something weird and wonderful tucked away in their vast workshop, and a quick sniff around the other day turned up a few interesting bits and bobs. Liberty are the name in custom and tuning in the UAE, and they've pumped out some serious show 'n' go in their time. Here's some of the muscle 'n' hustle tucked away...
Classic Yank-tanks have always been popular in this oil-rich oasis, and with zero restrictions on cheap-fuel-fun ($20 will get you a pretty big tank of gas), it's definitely a case of the bigger the engine the better, affording the V8 cult status.

This McLaren racer from the late 60s was the biggest surprise - Allah only knows what this little beastie is doing in the desert. Driven successfully in race series all over the world and thanks to 7-litre, V8 motors pushing around 700bhp, without a doubt quite a bit of a handful. Real men's racecars - free hairy chest with every one bought!
