DougS Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 I picked up this engine up the other day with a group of old built model cars. I was wondering if anyone had any idea what the heck it is. To me it looks like some type of turbine. It appears to be about 1/25 scale and because it is chromed I thought it was probably not from a plane. I have no idea if it is anywhere near complete but because of the size I think it might make a good custom car power source. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace-Garageguy Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 (edited) It's the old Revell parts-pack turbine. Edited March 2, 2022 by Ace-Garageguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DougS Posted March 3, 2022 Author Share Posted March 3, 2022 Thanks Ace, This is exactly what I was looking for as an answer. I couldn't of asked for more, photos of the unbuilt engine, instructions, built engines in vehicles and a lot of history on this and of turbines!

Oldcarfan27 Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 Use it as an engine for a 60s Batmobile, it's a perfect compliment to that car. It would also match the engine sound effect in the TV show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DougS Posted March 3, 2022 Author Share Posted March 3, 2022 Great idea, a Batmobile. I'll have to keep my eyes open for one to drop it in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
