anyone seen this anywhere before?

Arthur Dent · August 11, 2007, 12:36:21 PM

I want to say French like Amilcar

Allan L · August 11, 2007, 01:19:32 PM

I have never seen it before.
I guess German (for obvious reasons).
Four cylinders with unusual spacing (if the exhaust pipes are representative) and possibly downdraught carburettor(s)
The six-stud disc wheels and André Hartford dampers don't ring any bell, but should.

Not french and - surprise - not german

Allan L · August 12, 2007, 01:31:17 PM

European, though?

believe it or not - It is an american car.

It's a 1924 V8 Cunningham, apparantly!

Applause, applause, applause....

It seems to have been made in Argentina, so I do wonder if there is any real Cunningham connection.

and look under "Special Projects"

Thank you very much for this link.

So this seems to be a new body on old original components....
