    Did anybody see My Classic Car last night?

    Dennis Gage featured a hot rod owned by Jay Leno that has a gas powered 12 cylinder 1800 cubic inch m-47 army tank engine in it with hemi heads, overhead cam, a greyhound bus tranny and a rockwell rear end.:jd:

    I saw it last week on MCC. That was a hoss of a car wasn't it! Sure was long and attractive with the stainless body. They said the heat generated off that engine once warmed up was pretty brutal.

    OCC was/is building a chopper for leno that's supposed to "resemble" an older bike he has. While he was showing them around, he told them about this steam engine he had, over 760 ft lbs of torque out of 2 cylinders.:eek2:
