A very nice result, and an interesting vehicle.


I wonder why Fiat used a chain drive? The car would have had to have a differential to drive the two shafts, so why not just connect them to the wheels directly? There is not much of a ratio gain from different sizes of the sprockets.


Also, what is the date of the original?

WOW, that is a thing of beauty!! :D


Very nice!! :smiling3:


Italeri do a version in 1:12, I'd be tempted.....just like with the Ducati, get rid of the molded chain and build a PE chain.....STOP!!:eek:


Can't go there yet, I've got other stuff on my plate! :P


Great restoration, bub!! :smiling3:
