Can you image removing that engine?

At least you'd be able to see what you're doing!

Pete -

With a large enough hammer.... This Masser is all about details. I think you should sharpen the shot a bit. Other than that, super, even if it is not in Italian racing red.

Oh my, that is beautiful. One of my all-time favourite cars.

Never mind removing the engine, imagine crashing it it!

Actually removing that engine is probably simpler than removing most modern cars' engines. It certainly would be easier than my AR 166 which is shoe-horned it with electrics stuffed in every corner.

Pete - I remember seeing these at Brands Hatch in their first race in the country, perhaps the BOAC 500. Can't remember exactly but it was the inaugural visit of a works Maser. Previously I think they had all bneen privately entered 250Fs (Moss's ?)

You would have to be bloody game wouldnt you. Back your judgement, but theres no way back if it all goes pear shaped.
