Carbeque: Daihatsu Mira With a Jet Engine

We’ve subscribed to the Ice Break Youtube channel and the world hasn’t been the same, especially after we saw the most recent episode of Add A Motor To It.
This time, Dan and Leon as a question that has been bugging the automotive world for the past millennium if not more (grouse exaggeration): How do you make the Daihatsu Mira cooler than it already is?

In case you didn’t know what a Daihatsu Mira, that’s a kei car from Japan. However, our man with a plan, who’s name is Dave, decided a jet engine is a much better fit for the Mira.

Dave’s wife though he couldn’t do it when he told he he wants to build a jet dragster. Shame on her! However, our protagonist is an aircraft engineer, and he’s so cool that he has five more jet engines. And of course, with a jet car you should definitely do a carbeque... with a whole pig... marinated of course!

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
