Lowly Posted April 11, 2015 Posted April 11, 2015 Found this today and couldn't stop watching it over and over.
jimoshel Posted April 11, 2015 Posted April 11, 2015 Somebody has too much time on their hands Yep.. But at least they put it to good use. :thumbsup:
sinkrun Posted April 11, 2015 Posted April 11, 2015 I could do a 4.0 rebuildvideo with allot of swear words.
jimoshel Posted April 11, 2015 Posted April 11, 2015 I'd like to see them do it with a Rolls Royce Merlin aircraft engine. Wonder how a MJ would run with one of these babies under the hood? In the bed?
jimoshel Posted April 11, 2015 Posted April 11, 2015 It was used in the P51, F51, P38, Hawker Hurricane, Bristol B1 Spitfire and several others. Not sure but believe it was also used in some tanks.
Megadan Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 I'd like to see them do it with a Rolls Royce Merlin aircraft engine. Wonder how a MJ would run with one of these babies under the hood? In the bed? Well, it would take up the whole bed for starters, and darn near max out the rear suspension (over 1400lbs). If you've never seen one free of a plane in person, then you just don't get the size of those things. Awesome, but ridiculous.
jimoshel Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 Am well aware of their size. In 1976 I bought two of them at a surplus auction in Albuquerque. Had to rent a U-Haul to get them home. And I didn't think there was anything ridiculous about them. Other than the fact that i got them in the first place and didn't have a foggiest idea in Hell of what I was was going to do with 'em.
Lowly Posted April 12, 2015 Author Posted April 12, 2015 Let me guess you put both them in a Comanche. A twin Rolls-Royce powered manche. Now that be something.
Lowly Posted April 12, 2015 Author Posted April 12, 2015 I'd like to see a radial engine put in a comanche. I have seen it is some other cars and trucks. I think those are so cool.
88AKChief Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 what DID you do with them? :yeah that: :popcorn:
jimoshel Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 Ran a ad in Trade-a-Plane. Sold them both to the Confederate Air Force in Harlington, Tx
