Neat, but not $50k neat. Also, that's not a turbojet, its a turboshaft. Rated for 330HP at 6000 RPM, so you could hook it up to powerglide or TH350.

Maybe not Challenge budget, but you could definitely put together something similar for under $10k with some patience.

seller said: It has tremendous amounts of torque, so much as a transmission is not even needed. All that is needed is forward and reverse and nothing else.

I'm not so sure about this...

More likely there is some big military surplus auction site in the area.
