Jay Leno tells the tale of his Monteverdi, a car he calls a Swiss Road Runner because of its European styling and American powertrain.

Switzerland isn’t known for its auto industry, but Monteverdi made a decent business out of selling hybrids—that is, European cars with American engines. YouTube/Jay Leno's Garage

From what I understand, the Hemis in Hai models were all built by Petty Engineering and shipped over for installation. Wouldn't bet the farm on that, but thats what I read...

The Hemi Hai was at our Fall Fling show once.
