When Rich Benoit shared that he was towing a Model 3, we were sure his YouTube channel would get exciting content. He revealed the surprise on Twitter by showing some bits of the Mad Max Model 3 he helped conceive, but the first video to appear was not in his channel. It was on the Grind Hard Plumbing Co. YouTube channel, which is the owner of that car. Benoit and the Electrified Garage only helped create it.
Custom Mower with a 2JZ Inline-Six
Grind Hard Plumbing is building their ultimate race lawn mower. The team started with a Simplicity 9020 Power Max tractor and promptly started cutting it apart. They welded the pieces together around a Jaguar XJS front and rear subframes. That means the mower will have fully independent suspension and disc brakes. Power will be generated by a 3.0 L 2JZ inline-six mated to a five-speed manual transmission from a Toyota 2WD truck.
