The Hulme F1 was a proposed sports car to be manufactured by New Zealand boutique company Hulme Supercars Ltd. Its name was a tribute to the 1967 Formula One World Champion, New Zealander Denny Hulme. It was to be powered by the 7.0 L LS7 V8 sourced from the Chevrolet Corvette C6 and produces 600 hp (447 kW). However, mated to a 2,182.7 lb (990.1 kg) weight gives it a power-to-weight ratio of 3.6 lb (1.6 kg) per hp.
