Newbie originally from Ruesselsheim (OPEL)

Technically not a traditional hot rods and customs, but the ultimate OPEL:

OPEL 1914 GP Race car
760 cui, 4-cylinder, 4-valve with crown&pinion gear. Max rpm 2.900.

Seen this car many times in my mate's shop who restored it for the museum.

Your engine thread made me join. Love those Duesenbergs!

 

I also worked on the most kick-*** racing car/engine one can imagine:
1972 Mclaren M8F.

Find Hakkinen's comments on driving a M8D elsewhere on the web...
He explained it quite well.

Alas, this car and the Can-Am series are too new for this forum
Build years of either averaged at 1943 might just qualify?

 

Where are you based now? I see you're a fellow member of the Crankhandle Club.

 

I am in Newlands Was actually briefly at the last Natter. Next time I aim to bring a Maserati in bare ally
