Dang weird vehicle. The driver is sure wedged in there.

thats the aerial atom of 1929.

I must admit this a 'beautiful' if little insane car. There were rally Mini s as i understand ran front and rear engines, with seperate transmissions, but were problomatic because a misfire or other change of engine output came to adversly effect handling....not good when your half way round the corner sideways.

Can you give us any info on what the engine is? Looks very unusual

Fantastic car, I have a book with this on the cover! Its a fantastic car and so is the story behind it!

I have that book too, and John Bolsters 'Specials' and 'Motoring is my Business' You should get them, lots more of the story behind this car. I see you are also into stationary engines, I picked up a rusty Crossley engine last year, it's currently in bits on my garage floor. I might post some picks up on flickr.

It is not one engine but two. They are 981cc JAP KTOR racing V Twin engines from Brough Superior motorcycles. About 120bhp. Built in 1929.

@ShelsleySpecial There were several versions of Bloody Mary. The one I would like to have seen had four V-twin engines - one per wheel - with a fifth driving the supercharger for the others. If I remember correctly, it wasn't a success: there was too much trouble keeping all the chains tight, intact and in place.

Only four engines to my knowledge but I could be wrong. I can't post a URL to my flickr page on here as it will throw up an error, but if you go to the 'flickr' web page and do a search for 'John Bolster' all the images uploaded by 'shelseyspecial' are mine. There are a few pictures of Johns four engined special on there
