  6. I believe that has a V12 Merlin engine. It,s mate is a big blue and gold convertible with 6 wheels and also a V12 Merlin. The 6 wheeler is 5 miles from here in a private museum.
     
  7. This one, Its a RollsRoyce Meteor V12 :eek:

    It is often claimed to be a Merlin, but it has a Meteor, the tank version of the Merlin. The Meteor has no supercharger, the direction of rotation was reversed and the starter is different. The Merlin requires 100 octane gasoline, the Meteor runs on 80. I’m told that the six-wheeler has a Merlin. The Beast (the car pictured above) has a turbo-hydromatic 400 transmission.

    If Studebaker can have an international box on their pick up I don’t know why Willis couldn’t have a Rambler… Makes sense to me for whatever reason.

    Stupid repetitive AI narration, complete with goofy, entirely AI imagery and really annoying video panning make this a prime example of awful "content".

    I worry that young people may watch lots of this kind of crap and start modeling the banal, boring and assinine style of speech displayed. Then all they'd be fit for is to go into politics.

    I've seen a few tidbits of Mad Max, never really been a big fan, don't know when that deuce 3W was "built" but all those wacky Mad Max cars were built long before AI was hatched..............so how would one tell the difference?

    At least they don’t have to worry about getting a “flat”!
