A roadster's V8 under see-through casings

V8 Engines collection

A roadster's V8 under see-through casings

The American V8 that went into a lightweight roadster body, built from 659 pieces and 20.8 cm long. See-through casings sit over a chrome block, keeping the pistons in view from every angle, and exhaust detail closes out the rear. It comes hand cranked or motorised. Plan on two to four hours of building.
