Title: Re: single-seater Post by: ncundy on 11 April, 2013, 02:43:36 PM I don't think thats the same car, this is the photo I have of it - taken from this site:
http://8w.forix.com/rear-engines-postwar.html There is also a s/c Aprilia creation as well. Title: Re: single-seater Post by: JohnMillham on 11 April, 2013, 03:29:03 PM I think Ade's correct. Look at the wheels.

Title: Re: single-seater Post by: DavidLaver on 20 April, 2013, 07:56:21 PM Fascinating!! Talk of a Nardi head on an Aurelia engine and 160bhp. Also of an Aurelia engine in a version of the Nardi-Danese I'd never heard of. Anyone know more of either of these? This popped up with a LOT of Nardi info: http://www.ferrariexperts.com/etceterini%20nardi%20cars%20nardi%20racing%20cars%20scca%20racing%20cars.htm http://www.ferrariexperts.com/etceterini%20nardi%20cars%20nardi%20racing%20cars%20scca%20racing%20cars.htm#na3 David Title: Re: single-seater Post by: Richard Fridd on 21 April, 2013, 10:59:32 AM Also at http://8w.forix.com/rear-engines-postwar.html from Neil's post is a rear view of the Mono J-K Lancia, which I realise has been mentioned in the long ago 'Interesting Lancia Facts' thread
