Same. Although I really don't like wooden steering wheels. Just a personal thing though and I have no objection to other folk liking them. wink

That's the only thing I would change. Have a black leather one instead.

I'm not a wooden steering wheel fan either, but I do love the Nardi Classic.

Probably been posted before but found this and really like it...
I'd lose the second spoiler and have less garish wheels but I like what they've done to fix the silly fake exhausts.

Do you have any more details please?

Two engines? Cool idea!
Two gearboxes? Eh?
I wonder how the power is transmitted from the gearboxes to the rear wheels.

Looks more like a bunch of car parts arranged to resemble what a finished vehicle might look like.

I'm going to take a wild guess and suggest that isn't the finished article.

Good to see we're in agreement then. That project was announced in 2012, and is probably not finished today either.

So, unless I'm missing missing something -

"Looks more like a bunch of car parts arranged to resemble what a finished vehicle might look like."

You're close - parts arranged to resemble what a finished vehicle might look like are not the finished article.

You can see a 2 into 1 gearbox between the engine gearboxes and the diff.
