@stripclips_: [S03E26 - Road Legal Jet-Powered 1958 VW Pickup] *Watch until after the run to see a close-up of inside the tail of the jet!* Perry Watkins’ creation “Oklahoma Willy” is both road legal and strip-worthy! As you’ll see in this short video, Perry has opted to keep the pickup’s motor as well as the jet turbine! He drives it normally from the pit to the start-up area and then after the run he engages the motor when the jet has wound-down and turned off, and drives back to the pit. The type of jet that Perry uses is a Rolls Royce Viper 535. The vehicle weighs just short of 3 tonnes… so 150+mph in 10.6 seconds is nothing short of jaw-dropping - especially considering what the vehicle is and when it was originally built! (1958) Enjoy this one and it goes without saying to turn that volume right up to 11! 🔊 🎥 - Shot at the Doorslammers at Santa Pod Raceway, England in May 2025. #StripClips #OklahomaWilly #JetPickup #JetCar #SantaPod @Santa Pod Raceway | @oklahomawilly1
