I remember in 1961 the front cover of Hot Rod Magazine had "TV" Tommy Ivo dressed as a carnival barker with a scantily clad female assistant presenting his 4-engined Buick powered "Showboat" dragster and I still have the magazine these eons later. For me, in those days, this was beyond the "WOW" factor.

Great model and as always great pictures of it. Here is kind of a half hearted attempt.

@josh Over the years, I picked up all three of the Ivo dragsters ( include the single engined Hemi "Barnstormer"). I'd love to have a similar scaled model of the bodied "Showboat" that was hand formed replica Buick Station Wagon. This is a 1/24 model someone built.

@rich-sufficool I would be in for that, just the shear novelty of it would make it collectable.
