For some odd reason, the Petty Superbird was sent up the hill on a slow exhibition run alongside the Beast of Turin, which Richard Petty rose in as passenger

Forward the video to 7:23 for the Superbird and Fiat

a comparison of the Beast Of Turin, with any SUV or truck in the picture... the hood on the Fiat was higher than the roof on the SUV and truck!

I wanted to see the full size photo of the Beast of Turin racing (bottom photo) as Goodwood is using it in their email newsletters, and discovered a photographer that captured TERRIFIC photos at Goodwood

such damn good photography!

hand-built Beast of Turin cyclekart, built to the right scale, by beginning with a wall projection

which resulted in a cyclekart he called the Beastie!

and he took it ice racing by joining the Squam Trail Busters Snowmobile Club

the Beast of Turin, as an adorable piece of shelf art

 

quite the car collection (Bugatti, Fiat, GN, Cheetah, and the Team Starfish Barracuda (lol)). The sound editing is shit though, so be ready to adjust the volume often, as the dialogue is quiet, and the engines very loud (and the video contrast is also shit. Great video though)

 

I noticed the Barracuda in the background of another video, the one where they were restoring the Beast, and posted about it, that was back in 2016. So, not much progress on it in 5 years, but it's cool to see him working on it https://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2016/12/keep-looking-around-and-you-see-some.html for the story of the Team Starfish Barracuda

very cool repair shop photo

Great news! The uber talented Stefan Marjorham is releasing a movie in Feb 2015 about the Beast of Turin! Here's a preview!

http://stefanmarjoram.com/fiat-s76

the FIAT S76 - also known as 'The Beast of Turin' or 300hp FIAT. At 28.4 litres, the four cylinder engine is the largest ever purpose-built car engine (there are cars with larger aero engines, and the 2nd largest is 5 liters smaller, in Chitty I).

Two cars were built. This car uses the chassis from one and the engine of the other. The gearbox and bodywork have been made using original drawings and photos. Stefan is also making a film about the story of the car and the reconstruction. Stay tuned to http://stefanmarjoram.com/blog for updates



It's a glorious sound!  http://stefanmarjoram.com/film

Full gallery of the photos from, and art of Stefan from his Flikr page, via my post a couple days ago before I knew of this video http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2014/11/the-beast-of-turin-is-alive-and.html 

the Beast of Turin is alive and breathing again, 100 years later, and uber artist/photographer Stefan Marjoram was there to draw, paint, and photograph its engine kick off

see and hear the start-up of the Fiat yesterday in the trailer by Stefan Marjoram for The Beast of Turin, a film that is upcoming in February of 2015
