Another from the private junkyard in Ohio. Wouldn't you like to have one of those sitting in your back yard? I think most of the cars in the 50's were trying to look like that, and the Buick LeSabre was not only inspired by it but even named after it.

The Harrier was one of the loudest things I've ever heard. The APU on a Fokker 100 comes close second.
