1928 Curitss Frazer Nash Special  

**Chassis:  **1928 Frazer Nash
**Engine: **   1918 Curtis Aero Engine 8.2 liter
Curtiss OX-5-90 V8 Watercooled
Four speed manual chair drive  

This beautifully presented special is a 1918​/1928 race car, powered by a Curtis​s ​OX-5 a​ero engine mounted ​on a Fraz​er Nash derived chain-driven chassis.  

Built-in 2000-2004 by Roger ​Sweet, former ​Formula ​2 ra​ce driver ​and RAF pilot​.  ​For the production of the self-designed body, he commissioned Stuart ​Roach,​ of Roach Engineering in the UK which was certainly the best choice for such a project​.  

Roger called his car ​"Fran​z​iss" a contraction of Fra​zer​-Nash​-Curtis​s.  

​The Curtis​s ​OX was the most important and successful American a​ero engine of the first world war​.  It was the first mass produced aircraft engine in the United States which came available ​in 1915 and​ it was used in various capacities throughout the war​. The ​Curtis​s-powered ​OX 5 Jenny biplanes were water cooled​, 503 cubic inch​es and were 8.2 liter unit​s weighing 395 pounds ​(177kg​). This engine was capable of producing 90 horsepower​. It has a distinct feature ​- its rockers are exposed allowing for the components to be observed while the engine is running​. The engine of our car is also equipped with the desirable Miller roller rocker conversion​.  Mark Walker,​ UK 05 expert ​and successful a​aero engine racing car builder and driver ​states ​" ​A lovely engine – dead reliable​, beautifully made and bloody quick​."  

​The car is beautifully engineered and has ​been featured at ​VSCC events in the UK since it​ debuted at April Silverstone 2004​. From 2004 to 2013 Roger ra​ced his ​Franzniss not only in the UK ​(Mallory Park​, Oulton Park etc ​.) but also in the US at Watkins Glen​, Lime Rock Historics ​and Elkhart Lake as well as in France​. ​With every race Roger improved engine and the car technically making it faster and more powerful every step, ​until finally it was both blisteringly fast and very reliable.
In 2013 Roger started another project so decided to part with his creation​.  

Franziss found a new home in the ​VOLANTE ​Collection in Germany​.  ​Along with the car came tons of documents​, design​s and drawings​, manuals​, and handwritten notes​. Immediately the new owners started to draw​ a modified ​sleeker body for the car because in his eyes ​Franziss was a bit too wide around the hips​. Again Stuart ​Roach was commissioned, ​ and the results speak for itself​.  

With the new body came a new name the ​Frazer Nash Curtis​s became the Curtis​s Frazer Nash​.  

This is ​a blistering fast car that recently had an extensive engine check over at Blakeney motorsport in the UK.
A spare ​OX 5 engine can be included in the sale at an additional cost​.
