A picture of the John Fitch owned classic Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing Coupé in Bonneville inspired me to turn the new SLS AMG Gullwing into a record seeking machine. I kept the looks rather close to the original 300SL Bonneville, but gave it an updated and more modern feel by using a different font for the lettering. This vehicle could be real – and provided having the money, I’d actually go for it and have some fun with it at the salt lake flats…
If the marking F/GT is not correct for a new car like the SLS, please let me know what would be suitable. Thank you in advance.

A friend of mine from Switzerland is a huge Ford enthusiast. He inspired me to create this Bonneville Salt Flats race car, which is based on the Mk2 Escort RS2000 and could run in the Speed Week. The body has been altered to streamline it even more for higher speeds. Just imagine the body now sits on a tube frame chassis. This could be one wild ride. The engine? Well, your choice of any engine that fits under that bonnet, really. Go ahead, make it happen in real life!
