Nice work with your extra seat. Tell the passenger not to lean his elbow on the exhaust

Excellent further work on this, KP. Interestingly, I've just realised that this huge Fiat appears to be right hand drive and whilst we British and indeed other nations such as Australia, NZ and Japan know that is the correct side of the car for the driver, I'm a little surprised that a European racing car of this vintage isn't a left hooker. Was the car specifically designed for a world record attempt over here?

I wonder if it was Ernest Eldridge who bought it with an 18 litre engine in it then had the chassis lengthened to take the 21 litre engine, being English maybe he had it converted, just my best guess?

A great looking build with some fine detail, you can almost feel the heat coming off the engine

Now that is one great looking model car, KP, bloody marvellous!
As for Mrs KP, what a babe - tell her from me she's a great lass for giving you the green light for your Duke build!

A superb build with ideas to steal, the ideal thread.
