That is simply awesome. i wonder what that costs to build.

I am skeptical on whether the motor was actually firing. Seems like it would explode and fall apart. Maybe they just reduced the compression and let it run at super low rpms. :gotme

I think it's going in Lynda Carter's garage after all the shooting is over. (Yeah, obscure old guy reference)

Man, I hope that stays in a garage. Otherwise, you're gonna need a helluva lot of headlight restoration kits when that s*** goes yellow. :)
