#36 – 1996 Rolls Royce FAB 1
Who remembers the Rolls Royce ‘FAB1’? For a long time it was just a model. Then in 1966 a full-sized replica of FAB 1 based on a “chinese six” (four front, two back – similar to the one in the original Italian Job film) was created. And it made history. This car is a replica. And while functional, is not actually a production car from Rolls Royce. One thing to note: it’s wide. Much wider than the coach it was based on. The axles were widened to fit the width of the body. The body was a steel-covered framework moulded with filler to simulate the angles of the vehicle as seen in the TV series and films.
