Mexican 727 🙂

A limosine company based in Mexico has come up with what it thinks is the ultimate luxury car – a converted Boeing 727 passenger plane.

The company has taken the wings off the Boeing and turned it into a big deisel-powered car, capable of whizzing 50 people along the highway, at up to 200 kilometres an hour.

From next month, anyone with a spare $1,500 will be able to book a three hour trip in the converted 727, taking advantage of its dance club, bar and lounge – and hope it does not hit any pot-holes.

Sixty people worked on the plane’s transformation for three months.

The six-tonne plane is 18 metres long and 3.9 metres high. It has a six-cylinder, turbocharged diesel engine in the back and air brakes and suspension.

The interior is decked with neon strobe lights and audio and video systems.

Passengers can boogie on a dance floor, make a pit stop at a bar or retire to a “romantic” space in the back of the aircraft-turned-luxury-automobile.

I have read this thread with interest and it formed a basis for my once yearly visit to Hendon, so yesterday I trudged down the A1 and took my time with the Halifax to get some good shots of her.

terrific photos, they serve to highlight the absurdity of her condition laid bare,engines in boxes ,restored turret sat in the nose,giving the impression someones started restoration then run out of steam or in this case inclination:cool: 😎 😎

Moggy removed all the reposted pictures, there is no point in having a huge photo posting repeated on the same page of the same thread. Buck up chaps.
