This 1:1 scale drivable Hot Wheel dream rod was formerly on display at the magnificent Petersen Automotive Collection in L.A. and I made an annual SoCal pilgrimage to admire it at close quarters, for a number of years. Well, it's back out in the world and my boyhood dream of a real life Twin Mill in action has come true! It's loud, completely impractical and goes like the bejabbers! What's not to like? Absolutely nuthin', that's what! ❤

@@smavtmb2196 Technically Twin Mill is front mid engined (between wheels, in front of driver, the latter presenting the problem). But how could you possibly change this?

@@HALLish-jl5mo I think you would have to have the driveshafts extend back behind the driver and connect via chain(s) to a transaxle, though packaging is very tight with so little space between the seat and axle line. I imagine the drive would be torque tubes to a beefy carrier housing that would rigidly connect the drive outputs to the transaxle as you definitely don't want movement between everything. Would probably have to be a single seater, too, with the drive running down the sides. Of course, it's really only drivable in the loosest sense of the word, either way, so it's not like practicality matters. Rear mid engine makes a lot more sense (as much as two side-by-side engines can), but then it's a totally different car. Either way, it's a fun thought exercise.

I've always thought it was awesome that such an over-the-top toy car was brought to life. I realize the Twin Mill is just a show car, but I'm not impressed at all with that horsepower number. You would think that two 502 big block engines capped with superchargers would be making AT LEAST 3,000 horsepower, considering a single 383 small block with a centrifugal supercharger or twin turbos can easily make 1,400 horsepower. Still a pretty kewl car nonetheless.

Hotwheels created another iteration of this model called Twin Mill Gen-E which was meant to be an electric version, though since it is a toy with no engine the only change to the design was to remove the jutting out engines. You might have the best luck with creating your own Twin Mill in this form, a) for the better drivability without 2 big blocks obstructing your view, and b) because of the greater mechanical simplicity and relibility of having no transmission. Just one moving part in the motor (or motors if you want to go dual-motor like in many EVs) and plenty of space in the long sweeping front for batteries. You might even be able to set some range records with how much you can stuff in there. That's what I would do anyway bu I would understand if that would not satisfy the itch you have for twin V8s.

I remember seeing many videos from show-goers over the years and years back it was looking pretty worse for wear and just downright sad. It could barely run if at all and had to be pushed on and off of the trailer. Although I feel it could use some revisions mechanically still to help preserve it and/or make it more drivable (I understand it probably wasnt meant to be) but it has come a long way. What a rad machine to be brought to life.

As a Hot Wheels collector and a Muscle Car enthusiast, I have to say in this case, looking cool and realistic must have a point where they meet in the middle and are compatible. She could barely see the road, it was way too loud, she couldn't go faster without the car responding negatively due to handling issues, and it easily over heats. This car makes a cool toy for kids, but in real life it's disqualified from becoming a daily driver let alone a safe and practical vehicle.
