Sweet Jeebus I think I'm in love. The deseaming looks really good with the fat arches and that paint job! Very cool 8)

Oh boy, that picture is an old one.......

In case you haven't noticed, the picture has been stretched out of proportion...... it should be the same height but wider - the car is all wonky.

If I remember correctly, "DOK 351 K" has an 8 port cross flow head, 4 Amal carbs, 1.5:1 rockers..... and an interior to die for 8)

The exhaust tip was very stupid though....... about 4 or 5 inches wide and oval shaped...

maybe his suspension is solid and doesnt move, that would stop the wheels from doing any damage.
jeliousy makes you nasty.

was popular in miniworld - they had pictures of it everywhere.... I've never been keen on it, mainly because the owner had these poxy little open mesh covers over the mouth of the carbs - they don't filter anything - keeps rocks and small birds out but lets everything else in - that let the whole car down :lol: :lol:
