Aero Engined Vintage cars 

“I am going to put an aeroplane engine, in my car!”

That sounds like s stupid thing to do. Turns out it was a very good idea. Multiple cars were fitted with aero engines, and broke multiple records, and pushed the boundaries of engineering. 

A lot of aero engined vehicles, are still being campaigned today. In race meeting, hill climbing, or just being used as exhibition pieces. All four cars that are pictured above, will be at this years London Classic Car Show, taking place from the 14-17th of February. All four cars have been competing over the last couple of years. 

1. GN Parker - Cirrus Hermese
