No Reserve: Belly Tank Lakester
The No Reserve vehicle is a vintage 1934 Ford powered Belly Tank Lakester racing car, built in the style of those used during the 1940s and 50s Bonneville Salt Flats speed trials. This rare and distinctive auto is an authentic reproduction that showcases its unique belly-tank design, with a handmade aluminum body reminiscent of an aircraft drop tank, suspended between two large wheels, creating an unmistakable look that's part hot rod, part streamliner. Under the hood lies a powerful Ford V8 flathead engine, providing ample power for this high-speed specialist. The vehicle hails from Indianapolis, Indiana, adding to its rich American heritage.
