The Big Beer Wagon

[Harley]

Five years or so in the making, more trouble than I ever want to go through again, maybe some nice pre painted, snap kits will do for a while.





















The final picture is the kit this was all based on, feel free to play spot the difference....

Oh WOW, now that's what I call a show rod! Very nice build.
What the hell is that engine???

[Harley]

The basic engine is a vintage Bugatti V12 lump, cut apart just above the cylinder block, scratchbuilt head, valve covers from 1/12 Ducati bikes, scratchbuilt magnetos and fuel pump, blowers and carbs from old Lindberg kits, scratchbuilt pipes and exhaust turbine and other odds and sods from the parts box. Simples!

Hi,

That'd certainly be a wild way to deliver the beer (real ale, of course!).

An imaginative build and very well put together.

Cheers,
