There is no way that guy's first language is English


To be fair to the guy, the engine does look Rolls, but more like one from a WW2 Ambulance or Lorry. There's no way it's ever been near an aircraft, unless of course it was hurled from a DC3 at some point in it's military career

The car itself has to be one of the biggest bodged up pieces of **** I've ever seen in my life
PMSL @ the offers, £1.50 & £20 There's no way I'd spend that much on it, unless the petrol in it wasn't stale

LOL - And the engine plate says it's from a contra-rotating engine (Shackleton perhaps?). I'd like to see that hooked up to a car axle!!

I notice it's in Hendon - did he pinch the build plate from the RAF Museum then?
