    Seriously, too bad that the video concentrates on the in-car stuff. I would like to have had the visual effect of seeing this thing moving "the wrong way". Also, from the brief engine shots, that looks like a tip-up hood-and-fenders. Looking at the photo, that would make it seem like the engine is behind the driver. Inquiring minds want to know....

    1. Sure enough, the engine is in the back er... front... er well, take a look for yourself:

      I am still a little unclear about which end drives, and even which end steers...

    2. This (terrifying) image:

      shot upwards from the foot well, seems to show the steering, so I am going to guess that the wheels in front of the (brave) driver are the steering wheels. Still no idea how final drive is achieved.

      Those vice grips (upper left) on what appears to be either a long bicycle chain or a length of re-bar would make me wonder however.

    3. OK, one last one, from the listing:

      "Drive Type: Rear Engine Front Wheel Drive"

      The mind boggles....
