Don’t try this at home.

A Pennsylvania Panzer tractor recently got a makeover with the addition of a big-block Chevrolet engine with a Turbo 350.

No other modifications were made, which, according to Nicole Wakelin on BoldRide.com, “makes it terrifying and perfect at the same time.”

Panzers were built with a narrowed Dodge or Plymouth automobile rear end, and it’s estimated less than 50,000 were manufactured between their introduction in 1954 and discontinuation in 1970. Watch the video here.
