I want the Honda Metropolitan scooter with the twin jet engines he is working on (bottom of above mentioned web page).

Money can't buy happiness, but somehow it's more comfortable to cry in a Porsche than a Kia.

You'll have to get them away from his wife IIRC.

The really amazing thing about this if you really look closely at the text and pics is how well engineered and fabricated the whole thing is. When I first saw it after a buddy sent it to me I thought it was a put on, a joke, or something really hokey, but a few pages into it and it was clear this was a serious home-built, but highly sophisticated project. Hard to believe he built it in his two car home garage. The workmanship is really nice, and the engineering is way over my head.

Don't you just love the thing with the cops.

Wonder if he wants to sell it? I've never considered owning a new beetle, but for *this* one I could be convinced. I guess I'd have to autocross it in A-mod, though.

How do you spell DEAF AS A STONE. High freq from that engine at that distance inside an auto body probably produces sound output in the magnitude of 150DB++ And thats a low estimate. You'll have to learn sign language to know what they are saying when you get your trophy.

I remember when Monster garage built a jet car. One of the worries from the expert was back fire. Sometimes a jet can spit up fire. How long would the interior and occupants survive.
Not long.
