...of Peter Brock. In 1957, at age 12, he purchased this 1938 Austin 7 for $10.00
With an axe he chopped off everything but the bare necessities. Peter Brock was kind of like an Australian off-road/road race Carol Shelby. 😉
This quirky-cool-historic little 1/18 replica was purchased years ago. The wire rims & see-through radiator are perfect, all that "other junk" is fun to examine also. 😎

WOW!!! This is certainly bare bones Peter Brock considering all of his sexy designs to come, This could have been financed from a paper route. It's an incredible and historic model from an automotive genius.

"...paper route." LoL 😀 Yes, the epitome of bare bones; apparently, the fact that brakes were omitted help to refine young Peter's driving skills. 😬

a Top Shelf effort on this scale replica 🙂
...thanks (it's not bad ). I assume other replicas of this historic vehicle exist, but I've never seen any. 🤔 🤔 🤨
