Many things do not deserve the expression ‘Holy Cow’, but I think this is one that may. Holy Cow! Check out California’s only Street-Legal Jet Powered Beetle.
Ron Patrick holds a PhD in Mechanical Engineering from Stanford University and my has he used his education well. Patrick has engineered his Volkswagen Beetle to have two engines- the production gas engine in the front & the jet engine in the back.
Patrick states that he built the car to thrill him, not kill him so he does not know what speed the Street-Legal Beetle is capable of. For more pics & info on this truly outrageous Beetle, click here.
