This is the future!

Just bit underpowered,though, so you need to upgrade to the strongman engine that can powerlift 5000 lbs.

See , it's a question of torque.

The two manpower is impressive with a lot of top end power on the flats, but the one manpower heavyweight is what's really needed to get the Vanagon up hills.

Check around the local body building clubs for a suitable donor.
