Hello. This idea of making a private racer of the 450SLC popped into my head a while ago. I got the donor the other day so now i`m mostly searching parts and stuff for the build. The engine/drivetrain i`m not 100% about,but i was thinking about using the 6litre AMG v12 with ITB`s,and maby transmission and drivetrain from the SLS AMG,maby Fujimi. I also have some straight six engines,3,2litre and 3litre 24v wich would look good with ITB`s. The are some 32v and 16v v8 engines among the spare parts,but i cant decide yet. I just like the idea of a hight rev natural aspiratet v12 and manual transmission.
The donor.
Just silly fitting the engine donor in the engine room.
Plan is to adapt flares and front spoiler form an old Monogram Porsche 924 Grp5 kit.
Sorry about the quality on the pictures.
Here is a bit of inspiration. I`m thinking a street legal car,not full race. Not sure about mpg in city with v12
Thanks for watching. Also comments are welcome,good or bad.
