Cool vid - electric powered 356/VW type engine



Got a little giggle while watching it - at a speed of ~1100rpms it is using 7.2v. Which is about what a 356 generator/voltage regulator puts out at not much more than 1100rpms on the engine ...

Maybe that's the engine that alerted Mr Gonzalo da Silva Pinto to there being a problem with the engine in his Brian Austin Green 356.

Those hands and nails are uncharacteristically clean and perfect for working with saws, lathes, and hand tools.

Working with small electrical components I can see being that well kept, but still...
