Here's an odd one for you, Doc - an Australian bus with articulated steering. Powered by 2 Ford flat head engines - each with its own 4 speed transmission. An interesting concept that didn't last long. SW pic1a.jpg [ 66.52 KiB | Viewed 2365 times ] pic1b.jpg [ 45.81 KiB | Viewed 2365 times ] |

Beautiful aerofoil design. Probably extremely difficult to corner with. The hydraulic system for the steering likely took a lot of ingenuity.... Regards Doc Sharptail |

The twin motor/tranny setup didn't work so the steering & power module was removed & they were hauled from point A to point B by semi tractors. SW |
