Here is my Mercedes W154 built from a Penelope Pitlane shell and a PP chassis. The car may compete in the PP Classic GP class @ South Manchester Slot Racing Club

Allan, there are quite a few of us on HRW who are in love with all variants of the 154. I ran one at the first Land Speed Record in Cincinnati, and we have one guy here who has bought or built all the variants, amazingly. I like yours a lot. What tires are those?
