Points for effort!

In the early 50's there was a guy in our Ham Radio Club that had a 40's Chevy Coupe (IIRC).  He had an outboard Big ass generator in the trunk with the trunk lid removed.  The whole space behind the driver was occupied by a 1,000 Watt War surplus Tube transmitter and Receiver.  He ran full power going down the road with the generator in the back pounding away.  He worked the 75 Meter band which is pretty low frequency for running power in an automobile in those days.  He had a 3 inch screen ball on the tip of the whip antenna to minimize corona when transmitting.  Good time!

Two minutes before the inevitable explosion.

Reminds me of Jeremy Clarkson's tale of the woman in the Burka that fell over in the street.  Apparently she was wearing heels, a garter belt and stockings.  And not much else.
