The Navy surplus T58-8F engine in Ron Patrick's car can easily pin the speedometer, Patrick says.

Ron Patrick spent $250,000 to build a Volkswagen bug with a jet engine.

The jet engine in Ron Patrick's car puts out 1,450 horsepower

Ron Patrick spent $250,000 on his VW project. It took four years to complete. He did computerized structural and stability analyses. Steel conduits flow from the engine into the car's bowels.
