Nardi 750LM

The Nardi 750LM Crosley was one of the starters for the tragic 1955 24 Hours of Le Mans motor race. The car was famous for its twin torpedo like body work with the engine in one compartment and driver and fuel tank in the other. Joining these two sides was an upsidedown wing and this was the cars' downfall as it was blown off the road by a faster car as it was passing.
