Jim Mason's V8 Blender.

Neatorama reader Richard Joslin suggested this photo of a blender powered by a V8 engine (?), built by Jim Mason:

HOLY COW!!!! The gas-powered flame-throwing margarita mixer that puts the one you posted earlier look like NOTHIN!!!

I've seen it in action - it runs on an electric motor that actually moves the pistons up and down in normal fashion at very high speed - a tank of propane supplies the flames. There is also a stick shifter to control speeds in typical 4-speed auto configuration.
