Air cooled 5 cylinder? What is that all about? I have been curious about unique air cooled engines like the Wisconsin VH5D.

Damn, I've had this idea kicking around in the back of my nogging for a decade or better. In another life, the fab shop I worked at had a mobile sand blasting setup, that's compressor was powered by a 6 cylinder Deutz, Good Lord was that thing loud! I still come across them regularly nowadays, since several of our research farms use 4 cylinder versions to power their irrigation pumps, John Deere power units and 4BTs are more common, but there are a lot of Deutz too.
Every time I see one, I think it'd be bad ass on a "rat rod."

TIL about air-cooled diesels. Mind blown.
They don't seem to come up for sale often either on CL and such, but I can't tell if it's because the engines just work so well that it's better to hold onto one for a rainy day, or if they are just constantly used.
I too, have thought of one for a rat rod project.
It's certainly been done more than once. Saw this one at a show around here.
That's a helluva trailer!

I don't hate it.

Is that the front end of a Lambo Urus shopped on a pickup?
Edit: pretty sure it’s a Lambo nose on a Raptor.
