LOST PLANS: AUTO UNION TYPE 52 SUPERCAR.
https://iedeiblog.com/tag/ferdinand-porsche/
Quote:
The following artwork was commissioned by Classic and Sportscar (1984) and is by technical artist Brian Nation to attempt to recreate what a full plan of the Type 52 would have looked like if they had continued with the plan:


Quote:
Surely this car was a sign of things to come from Porsche—-and as they say, the best ideas are often attempted many times before they actually take off, as i’ve seen in regards to Ferdinand Porsche’s story time and time again.

Here are some original drawings made by Dr. Erwin Komenda (designer of the Auto Union GP cars!).......................





Quote:
So in 1933, Porsche decided he wanted Auto Union to build the fastest, most insane, 4.4 Liter V16 200hp road car able to carry 3 people (including driver), have a centrally seated driver, and with the Auto Union race car engine pounding away in the rear-end of the car. That idea and drawings were labeled P52 or “Type 52” in 1934.

^please post some more pics of that repower. Also- how well that engine does. I have heard some good things about it.

And for the pic: I'll take your Norway/France, and top it with the Normandy!
