This thing was on ebay last week:

And I found some better pictures:

This link tells us the Trike was build nearly 30 years ago!?

The engine is a 5.2l (318cui) 2-Stroke V6 Diesel from Detroit Diesel. It was used for tanks and busses. Maybe not for daily use, but like the owner said "GUARANTEED TO STOP TRAFFIC ANYWHERE YOU GO".
These 2-Stroke Diesels sounds strange to me. You find many videos of all kind of vehicles fitted with the same engine used in this trike. Just do a search on Youtube for "6V53T".
