Italeri 1/12 Fiat Mefistofele21706cc Car Model Kit

The Fiat Mefistofele was a monstrous land speed record car from 1924, powered by a massive 21.7-liter Fiat A.12 aircraft engine producing over 300 HP. Sir Ernest Eldridge drove this terrifying machine to a world speed record of 146.01 mph at Arpajon, France — on a public road. Named after the demon Mephistopheles, the car was essentially an aircraft engine bolted to a chain-driven chassis with minimal bodywork, representing the raw, dangerous heroism of early motorsport. This 1/12 Italeri kit captures the exposed engineering and monumental engine in impressive detail.
