Actually I don't see how the 114 could be a mid engine, much less a mid engine V10. Something does not seem right in looking up the descriptions. "An upgrade from VW's 1.0 to a 1.5" is what is stated. That leads me to believe it's actually a 4cyl ass dragger. Besides, look at it... how could the engine be in the middle? If I'm wrong someone please correct me. The 360 Cistalia was the car Ferry built to gain some cash & help the design firm. I'm not sure but I think they delivered it just after the old man got out of jail. Obviously by Andys' pics you can tell she was a bad ass car way ahead of her time. Here's another shot of the 360. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool_shades.gif) Sorry to bump such an old thread, however I finally finished reading the article in 000 about the Type 64, great article and now I want to know more about the Type 114 that never happened. Questions: Anymore pictures or drawings for this motor? If not, what manufactured motor at the time would be closest to it since it mentioned plenty of 5 cylinder motors having been built and used, my understanding was that it to be based on something already made?
