I have just persuaded my friend, Milan of Bratislava, to take up the most prestigious - and ultimate - challange! He will create this bizarre car for me and my Le Mans 1955 collection:

#61 Nardi Bisilero 750 LM
Team: Nardi Automobili, I
Drivers: Roger Crovetto, I / Mario Diamonte, I

Some photos are on hand, but he can always use more. But the most important question: Where can we lay hands on drawings with the dimensions of this car?

Have I mentioned that I am a GREAT fan of Milan?

Hi Holger

The last picture at this site, givs a good impression, of the size of the car..
Le Mans History

I have seen this as a model somewhere, on the web.. not sure where...

Hi,

I found this scanned page on flickr: Bisiluro
If you look close enough there are dimensions.

Hope this helps.

Btw it is spelled bisiluro, not bisilero. Bisiluro gave more search results.

regards,
Spykerman

And some more info
Hope you or Milan can read Italian .....

Nice touch though, it seems the car is currently located at the Da Vinci museum in Milan (and you are asking Milan to do it)

rgds,
Spykerman

Thanks guys - the Bisiluro link was new to me.

Seems to me that Milan has to go to Milan - and do some measurements and learn to read Italian.....

NB! Sorry about the wrong spelling, my fault.

Oh Holger. It is a different car that is for sure (

), but does this mean that Milan will not be making any more F1 cars in the near future to add to the Hesketh and Surtees?

That would be a shame as they are top notch.

Cheers,
Philip

Philip - I can not answer for Milan (neither the guy nor the city), but I am pretty sure my little Nardi project will just be a number in his pipe line.

It is amaizing what he can create in no time, so hopefully all his other projects, especially the seventies F1 cars, will keep rolling of his production band.

Hopefully others will join in and order a Nardi. Not for me to lower my price, but so that he can earn some good and well deserved payment for his great efforts.

Well, Milan didn´t do it (so far). But David from AA Bodies does it. Hurrah!

PCS32 chassis just ordered, and Reissorg is working on the decals. Great.

I´ll be back.
