An
Airfix Bentley Blower 4.5 Litre . For some reason this car
appeals to me. I even saw a real one once at the Collier
Car Museum in Naples (wish I had taken photos !
)
I
have collected a magazine about the car, and a post card
for reference.
There's
a larger scale kit also of this car, in 1/12.
Someday I hope to get one of those. Also I believe Airfix
makes a 1/32 scale kit.
Rolls
Royce.
Here
below is a picture of the 1:12 scale Airfix Bentley Blower model
kit.

-Driven collects the best of internationally acclaimed racecar
photographer Jesse Alexander's work taken between 1954-1962,
the height of the golden age of the European Grand Prix. During
