This is a Vitesse model #634 of 2500. It's a Honda RA 272, V12, 60degree, 1495 cc. The engine created 220bhp @ 11,000 rpm transferred to the wheels by a 6 spd tranny. It was driven by Ronnie Bucknum in the '65 French GP. The first Honda F1 I recall was driven by Ritchie Ginther in the Mexican GP. I thought it was really unique in that the engine sat transverse. It also had a bit of a different nose treatment. I'd like to get my hands on that one.
