Yup, thats a tri-jet-powered Mk1 Toyota MR2. It was listed on Ebay a few years ago. In fact, here's the vehicle description...
Vehicle Description OH BOY!! NOT SURE IF I CAN WRITE A LIABILITY WAIVER LONG ENOUGH TO SELL THIS ONE. YOU MUST B @ LEAST 35 YEARS OLD TO EVEN LOOK @ THIS SITE!!!!!!!! WINTER IS COMMING IN IOWA AND I NEED ROOM IN THE GARAGE SO MY LITTLE PRIDE AND JOY HAS TO GO. THIS IS A TRI JET POWERED TOYOTA MR2, BUILT IT MYSELF AND YES BEING CRAZY CAN B AN ASSET. IT IS POWERED BY THREE AIRESEARCH TURBOCHARGERS, RUNS ON EITHER JET-A FUEL OR DIESEL FUEL, SELF STARTING WITH COMPRESSED AIR AND SELF IGNITING WITH AN IGNITER FOR EACH COMBUSTER. IT IS SOOOOOO MUCH FUN. UNDER THE HOOD IS A 5 HP HONDA ENGINE THAT DRIVES THE ALTERNATOR, FUEL PUMP AND OIL PUMP, JUST PULL THE ROPE, GET IN AND START THE TURBINES AND GO. IT IS A LITTLE SLO OUT OF THE GATE BUT @ 50 MPH THE SPEED BUILD UP IS PRETTY IMPRESSIVE, WILL PROBABLY GO 120, ONLY HAD IT TO 80, THEY GET A LITTLE STEAMED IN IOWA @ 20 MPH OVER, ONE CAN WAKE UP WITHOUT A LICENSE, AND THERE IS NOT MUCH QUESTION BUT WHAT IT CAN B HEARD, ALTHOUGH I CONTEND ITS STREET LEGAL EXCEPT FOR THIS LITTLE EXCESSIVE NOISE ISSUE!!!! IT IDLES @ 50 MPH, IS PRETTY QUIET INSIDE BUT BEHIND THE CAR IT IS SERIOUSLY LOUD. THIS CAR HAS BEEN SOOO MUCH FUN 2 BUILD, SPOOL UP DRIVE AND SPOOL DOWN, BUT MY GARAGE IS ONLY SO BIG, IT DEFINATLY WILL GET ATTENTION!!!! WILL GO OVER THE SYSTEMS WITH THE WINNING BIDDER FROM STARTING TO THE AIR ACTUATED PARKING BRAKES, OH BY THE WAY THE GPS IS NOT INCLUDED BUT THE TOWBAR IS AND IT TOWS EASILY.
