I just scanned these pics and sent them to Jerry, (BIGBARNEY), this morning.
I thought some here might enjoy them also.

I took these back in 1994/95 in Lavonia Michigan. Dan Mancini came by the shop with this LHS mule car he had built under contract with Chrysler as a feaseability study for dual drive train vehicles, (To assist trucks/buses etc on long grades).

It was powered by two complete V6 drivetrains that were syncronized to work together.
It was a gas to drive it.

French manufacturer Citroen built these in limited numbers for off road purposes already in 1960, but only with about 23 hp per engine.

I love it, I did sometime see a few dual engine '66 Toronados and they command high prices when available.
