Gone and done it AGAIN! Another project

[V8 FOU]

Can't resist it. I think I need help.


Have plans for it already. Lose the Pinto / boat anchor engine. Plus possibly the chassis as it is a LDV thing.
I have a complete running P4 chassis which would be better.
Keep the body more or less as is.

Nice Bugatti

Ha, great stuff... just the right level of bonkers rather than needing help, keep it up

[RicksAlfas]

Pur Sang have let themselves go a bit.

Trigger's broom? You're buying a set of badly made panels that almost, but not quite, completely fail to look like a T35.

Utterly certifiable, go for it and post lots of pics.

Speaking from experience, we need bank-account-destructive therapy from time to time to keep us sane. I am still hoping that the owner will consent to sell be another box of bits one day. He says he wants to sell it, then changes his mind. Galling





It's been sitting there at least ten years to my knowledge. But good luck with your project. A nice little woofly Rover engine might just make that a very speedy boat anchor!

Clearly this is a lowdrag replica but which example is it a copy of? Front end looks a little pointy for a Lindner/Nocker replica?

[jackpe]

Totally and utterly nuts.... but got to be admired for tackling that! Good luck

[PositronicRay]

Well done, looks like a poor copy of this.

Lumsden/Sargent replica, but in its later form not the original.



Here is how it looked when first made:-



Very slippery, but you had to put the car on ramps to check the oil and water. Bonnet would only open a tad.

Thats the car I was thinking of when I saw your picture of the replica, looks fantastic!
