I recently purchased a Chevron B16 with a BMW M10 engine in the back. The car came out of Italy, and has spent the last 9 years winning races in the Masters Series. Here's a video of its arrival in the US:

Good Dog productions are Pavlovian...they always make me drool. Hope to see Dotts (my moms' shortened version..she's an early 1921 model) in the flesh; thanks for sharing.

The guy I bought my Giulietta from races, among other cars, a B16. I guess he out-grew the Alfa (hey, I'd take a B16 over a Giulietta too).

There was an all-Chevron run group at Watkins Glen (SVRA race in July), and the sight of these old racers flying down the main straight was pretty impressive. Personally, they scare the cr*p out of me as I can't imagine what it's like to hit a wall when you sit that far forward. I guess you just make sure you don't go off the track. The faster Chevrons were a little quicker than Bill Gavin's CSL despite their little motors.

Congrats on yet another very cool vintage racer.
