General description :
This wonderfully evocative 2-seat Speedster built from the ground-up on a 1928 Dodge chassis and fitted with beautifully crafted aluminum coachwork by Stan Francis. Built in the classic style of a 20’s dirt-track racer, it features a gutsy later-model Dodge flathead inline-six with twin Strombergs, an Offenhauser intake, high-compression head, and custom straight exhaust, along with period-correct disc wheels and hydraulic rear brakes. Remarkably fast and exciting to drive, and with the potential to be a thrilling entrant in the Great Race or similar vintage events. This vehicle just arrived, and a full description is coming soon. Please contact Hyman Ltd for more details.
