I'm sure everyone has probably seen this already, but this guy is a true hotrodder. His swap makes our twin turbo UZ swaps look like child's play:

Besides building this outrageous Beetle, and a twinjet powered scooter for his wife, he wants to buy a decommissioned Soviet SA-1 SAM missile and do this with it:
"I want to build a missile silo on my front lawn," he said. "It'll have those electric-opening silo doors and I'll have a set of lights for it. Then, at night, I open the silo doors and raise the missile up, with those lights on it."
He gave a great big smile.
"It's technical art."
