When FDR coined the phrase "The Arsenal of Democracy", he was talking about Detroit. Proud to live in the 2nd most violent city in America!!

Re: M35 Military Rat Rod!
Sometimes in life you just need BOOST haha
In fact that is exactly why my wife's Mini Cooper S has ended up running twice the boost over standard hahahahaha.
The Turbo was a Thingverse find and printed at 150% i think
Last night the M2 rod ends arrived for the rear suspension setup, hopefully later this week the M3 rod ends arrive for the 4 link setup and then this truck is ready for a real test.
I made the engine mount location as part of the rear subframe structure. Uses a metal WPL drive shaft.
More details and pictures to follow as you know and hopefully some video.
I will also then try to get a modified HL smoker to pump smoke up the stacks!!!!!(any hints by the way, please let me know)
