1968 GMC Pickup - Turbine Power
We check out Jerry Johnson's jet-powered 1968 GMC pickup truckYour hot rod might be prettier and possibly quicker, but nothing on the street is hotter than Auburn, California, detective Jerry Johnson's jet-powered pickup. In fact, its 1,400-degree exhaust got the cab's carpet smoking within minutes of initial fire-up--just as predicted by aircraft experts who'd warned that excessive exhaust and oil temps in any enclosed area would quickly cook a turbine engine, if not the entire vehicle. And no way is your noisy hot rod louder than Jerry's; when this '68 GMC idles into the cruising spots, the shriek exploding from 10-inch stacks drowns out any number of rumpety-rump big-blocks.
