Do a search for Blastolene Brothers. They do things like that. I'm positive by looking at it that they built that rod.

 

That is ridiculously cool....

 

edit: Yep, just as I thought.

Wait so what is the deal with 2 stroke diesels, do they need to run oil with the fuel or something ?

The two stroke Diesel engine does not mix fuel or oil with the combustion air. The crankshaft bearings are lubricated from pressurised oil in the same way as a four stroke engine.

This is a car that my second cousin and his father paid to have built as part of a TV show that they tried, or are trying to do. It is powered by bio-diesel. I have never actually seen it in person but it looks pretty cool. I must say it was hard as hell to find this picture so I think if they are using it to promote a TV show they need to make it easier to find. Like how about a website for the truck cousin?

 

 

Of course, I would like to add that I don't think this is a "Rat Rod", they paid someone a hefty sum to make it. I don't know if you know the story on the truck above at the start of the thread Phleb, but it looks like someone dumped a semi-load of cash into that one as well.

Earplugs ? ! ? ! ? ! ? ? ? ? ?

[datzenmike]

Looks like a logging truck motor.

[MikeRL411]

All this reminds me of the Peterbuilt motorcycle Jesse James built on his Cable TV show last year.

[Z-train]

Point of clarity-it is NOT a "Ratrod".

[Jesse C.]

What Ztrain said, it is not a Rat Rod.

 

That is way too clean.

[Phlebmaster]

Good point...thread title changed. ;)
