Post by: Billqvist on June 26, 2013, 01:16:41 AM

Finally after 3 years in the garage the Pre war Land speed racing car is alive. This year will be lots of testing and fine tune the engine. As well find a clutch that stands the torque (1.900 NM).  Here is a picture and a youtube clip from a AeroShow in beginning of june.

Another masterpiece from your hands. You really do a fine job of representing an automotive era in history.
I know I called you Bill for quite a while before I found out that was your last name but now I can't remember your first. :roll:
People should know, these cars are not restored originals, "Bill" creates them from scratch, from parts from the era as they were back in the day.

Sid-Thanks a lot for the encouraging words.

I get use to be called "Bill" even in Sweden. My first nam Glenn is quite common in USA and in the Swedish city Gothenburg  :-)

I also moving on to a new V12 project. This time it is a more reasonable project. It will be a Lincoln Zephyr V12 -39 with a supercharger , shortened Buick -28 frame and a pre war race body. Same same, but different.

All the best from Sweden,
Glenn "Bill"
