The engine is actually from a WWII PT boat. The car is based on a 1930 Bentley 8-litre chassis, although it is highly modified. The car has 24 exhaust pipes, however it only has 12 cylinders. This is because the engine is a twin-port design. The engine produces 2,000 foot-pounds of torque. Chris Williams, the owner, claims that the car has been light-heartedly criticized as the "biggest automotive waste of time, money and engineering expertise ever built".
