Land speed record breakers
I'm not a collector of land speed cars, or race cars per se, but I do have a few pieces I have accumulated over many years. Someone else will have identify some of these. I'll try without removing them from the showcase. I have collected mainly for the style of the vehicle, not much else.

I note that your Miller has off-white tires while mine are black - was this a one-off from the D&G series?

My Golden Sub has white tires as well.
Maybe Phil ran out of white O-rings!
