    I can see the excitement building, yes I’ll take your personal check and tell your loved ones that “I gave it to you because I’m pretty cool”

    This is the kind of crazy thing I end up with in my garage.

    Question: This engine doesn't appear to have a power takeoff transmission (not sure of the name). Does all it do is make noise?

    Thrust, it’s powerful enough to push you around, making an afterburner for it makes it even better

    I even know an AP who would fall in love with this bit of history. Unfortunately, the wife vetoed it as we already own a turbine (PT6A-42A).

    Have you ever seen the turbine powered, think it was '32, Ford in the LeMay collection? Pretty cool car. They used to start it up on his once a year tour of his house and MaryMount.

    Yup, here it is....

    Oh, and it says theirs is broken, they might need yours. :)

    I met the engineer builder way back in the 90’s, at the time he didn’t know where it was, interesting guy. He stopped by my Bellevue shop to chitchat about a 32 ford that was sitting there. I wish my motor had the transmission instead of thrust

    I am not a restomod guy, but if someone does a restomod, this should be the power plant.

    As a matter of curiosity, how does one end up buying/owning one of these?
    Military surplus?

    You guys should have known me when I had Buweps Mark17 torpedo that I bought from a guy that was getting deported from America, the funny part was when I asked a commander from Seal2 if there was any juice to make it go laying around. I use to find all kinds of great stuff in my ruff n rowdy days
