The last time we featured Victor Jönsson’s custom Volvo hot rod it was still being built. Fast forward several months and Victor has the huge 38.8 L diesel V12 running and the project driving under its own power. The tank engine makes 520 hp and 1,969 lb-ft of torque but Victor’s custom planetary gear drops the torque to a manageable 516 lb-ft of torque. Follow the project at Stridsvagnshotrod FB page or @Stridsvagnshotrod.

What on earth?!?! I’m not sure this makes sense on any level.
