You're wright!... And I thought:"Can I buy one and make it an RV!?". And than I read this on Live Trading News:

"...GMC Futurliner 'Parade of Progress' Bus was designed by Harley Earl, and featured in GM's Motorama expos. Only twelve of these GMC Futurliners were built, with one recently selling for $4.1 million at the Barrett-Jackson auction house..."

Seriously - an in-line 12? Two sixes?

Wow - imagine the crankshaft on that thing. I wonder how many mains???

I read the straight 8 on the 300SLR drove the drive shaft from a gear in the middle of the shaft due to too much flex at the end.

Saw this yesterday at the acid dip shop. I'm not sure of the manufacturer but I got a kick out of how tall it was(notice 55 gallon drum next to it). And it's just an 8 not a 12.
