Do you know about the Varooom Room?

One member here does, but I'm trying to learn more about this.

Here's precious little info on what I've found online:

I had not seen this before. The chain and padlock over the hood might not be the best for the paint, but now I know where Chevy got the idea for this ad (the Olds ad is from 1969, the Chevy ad from 1970):

Heard someone in Chicago has one of these kits. Sound familiar to anyone?

plastic chain... it's a display, not intended to hold back the Beast for real.
