doubt it, it's aircooled! I've been pondering it for awhile and I can't come up with anything other than "airplane motor??"

EDIT: A closer looks for it to not be a v12, but a W24!

Good catch on the cooling - you'd think a Porsche guy woulda caught that.

Wasn't there an air cooled v-12 tank engine?

Hey Porsche930dude

About that 4-engined car; it reminds me of a car built & raced by a drag racer named "TV" Tommy Ivo. It had 4 Buick engines if I recall correctly. This was back in the mid/late sixties. Please let me know what the car in the photo is.

Many Thanks
JB
