Thanks,
Yes, wilky, he has and i enjoyed the Episode he showed with it. there will exist four or five Turbinecars.
Jay Leno and defenitly Museum of Transportation in SF.
Perhaps the Henry Ford Museum and Chrysler i think has also one in the Museum. For Details i have to Research again. Long time ago as i read all about this story.

There's still nine left.
Seven in museums and two privately owned.
All the museum examples had their turbine blades removed by Chrysler.
One museum has restored the turbine to working order both private ones are fully working.
Apparently they were never made on mass due to a lack of fuel economy.
Which is a real head scratcher because when has that been a major consideration with a vehicle from a country known for its gas guzzlers

Album info

What if Chrysler destroyed not all Turbine Cars and a barnfind is founded?

How should it looks like, if a Turbine Car is pulled on a Trailer from a Junkyard?
