HUGE "Ratrod" by Ludo van der Veen-Hiemstra

Check out the ENORMOUS "Ratrod" on MOCPages: http://mocpages.com/moc.php/207502 . I'm sure the Lego Pneumatics fans will love it! There are 33 pictures total (some of which appear below).

WOW, This thing is really really huge !!! I'd love to see a video of the (pneumatic) functions in action.

From his "Ratrod in Progress" webpage http://mocpages.com/moc.php/204027 , there's a link to this YouTube video of the Ratrod in motion:

! .

The 5:43 video shows:

(1) The pneumatic V-8 engine's speed being regulated by the lever in the center of the dashboard,

(2) The chassis INDEPENDENTLY being lowered and raised, front-to-back, and left-to-right,

(3) The big (non-Lego RC) rear tires being driven forwards and backwards (pneumatically) via the functional gearshift lever in the center console.

Yes, the mighty LPE, LEGO Pneumatic Engine, very strong and tunable engines powered by external compressor.
