Congratulations Dom. Just watched the video - looks like a very good start - don't be scared to throw some of it away and on a technical note, the back axle ratio is going to be very important, so check what it is and start getting a crown, wheel and pinion made as it takes a very long time. Look forward to welcoming you to the Shed soon. And thanks for the mention. Ivan

[@richie4540]

Just as TallyHo sets sail this project comes along.

[@HeavensGremlin]

Suggest a lorry/bus gearbox in order to handle 200hp. I have a barn full of old aero engines - but none quite that early. The original Napier Lion - an excellent engine, came out in 1917, but was developed through to 1930..... Not easy to find, but the later ones were very pretty robust and reliable. They started at 450bhp, and ended-up at 600-1,350bhp The really ideal engine would be a Wolseley Viper V8 - a 200bhp, direct-drive version of the Hispano Suiza 8b geared-drive engine. However - none of these engines are easy to find - so you may be best advised to look again at the OX5.

[@adambrook7468]

I think that you ought to focus on the engine which it already has. It looks as though it is probably a very interesting engine in its own right. Wouldn't it be a shame to separate the original engine from the chassis? Perhaps there are good reasons for breaking this up but I would have thought that originality counts for a lot. You use the term Edwardian loosely, most Edwardian, i.e. pre-1910, aero engines would be very rare, limited hours museum specimens. Most of the aero-engined cars which inspire you would have benefitted from the vast amount of war-surplus stock sold off at scrap metal rates after 1919 (and therefore are strictly Georgian). That said, good luck with this one, I'm sure it will be an interesting project to follow.

[@SpeakerMunkey]

very sad you had to sell the original Ranalah, I remember how excited you were to hunt it down and the journey to find the old boy engineer with the classic Italian cars. This sound like it's going to be an amazing ride though and I'm here for it!

[@peterhofmann8292]

Always admired your work on The Repair Shop, so being here, albeit late, I am amazed by what you do, and what projects you take on👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@Laxpowertoo]

When I started at LMB in Belgium, they had just finished a home grown Minerva. The original sleeve valve smoke generator engine was shot, so they built a Liberty V12 from parts left over from the first war. I wasn't cheap, but it was absolutely brutal. They made quite a few engines so there must be another being used as a door stop somewhere.

[@nathanhickeyhickey8693]

Nothing ventured NOTHING GAINED!! Wonderful project- Go for it you've the skills and passion, Job done. Reach out to Jay Leno perhaps .. he has a love of turn of the century vehicles, and reproduces old parts I believe, also look for an Australian guy Rod Hatfield and his home built "special "

[@wsherratt5159]

Hi Dom, I love the sound of the Ranalah Rocket. Coach built body gives you an ideal opportunity to bring along the skills of apprentices by building various body parts at shows and demo’s. I suppose it would be a bit like getting them to learn whilst at the same time driving them towards top-end production. A motoring community build with a single purpose. Taking it to GOODWOOD. Best of luck and I hope all goes well. W

[@TFuzz58]

Congratulations Dom, looks like a great start. I’m sure you will figure out the engine, but might I suggest you talk to Jobie Carter about a truck transmission from the era you are looking at. They would likely be strong enough to take the torque of any aero engine you end up with, if you can find one light enough. He might have some good ideas what to look for and maybe some contacts to talk to. Cheers from Canada. Tim

[@likeakite]

Of course it's got to be the 'Ranalah Rocket'...I love having lots of projects on the go at once....I totally get it Dom.

[@arielsaeth]

Something engine that's connected to the Schneider cup would be cool, Calling it the SCHNEIDER ROCKET has a ring to it, early Omnibus or Lorry gearboxes were very strong ,another avenue you could look at. but as you say it's all about who you know and deep pockets once you go Edwardian.

[@jonathangehman4005]

I totally understand the desire to make your Special SPECIAL, with an unusual engine that would set it apart from the other Edwardian Monsters, however... There's something to be said about taking the more well trodden path on your first trip over the falls if you'll excuse the mixed metaphor. An OX-5, a Hall-Scott or similar, if it's within your budget, will get the wheels turning, both literally and figuratively, far sooner than something exotic that requires reverse engineering to repair or replace broken or missing parts. There's also the institutional knowledge of your new H-S or Curtis mates that have made a lot of the expensive mistakes already and will be happy to help. You can enjoy your Edwardian HotRod years sooner and be on the lookout for that 30litre TwinCam Etcetterini Dirigible engine while you're Hooning around at Members Meetings and plowing through the Hedges at Prescott. Lots of the Ferocious Fire Breathing Beasts of yore had a progression of engines ranging from the merely absurd to the unfeasably ludicrous as the owners got used to increasing levels of terror and panic, so you'd be living the adventure in an historically accurate way. Whatever you do, it's going to be BADASS and I don't doubt that you'll see it through

[@roberthocking9138]

I can’t wait to see this develop, I just hope we both live long enough to see it finished, it’s a huge job . Congrats

Dom, everyone secretly wants an Edwardian racer. Most people are just dreamers and as my dad said to me when I was in my teens ..... never ever be a wasser. When I asked what a wasser was he said, one of those people that was always going to do such and such, but they never do. So I have followed his thinking ever since. Never regretted it for a minute. All the best from Normandy, France

[@jackacres3936]

As another Kiwi, I fully concur with this gentleman’s comment!

[@mikehipperson]

Best of luck Dom, finding an inline, pre 1918 engine will be pretty tough, as most aero engines were either radial or rotary units and it wasn't until the BE2 fighter bomber that inlines became popular and we're made by Rolls Royce (very expensive) and the German equivalent, Daimler Benz (as rare as hens teeth due to the scrapping of WW1 German aircraft. Maybe, if you can find one, a very early Gypsy Major 6 cylinder inline engine may be your best bet. It was used extensively by the De Havilland Aircraft Co almost from their inception and delivered good reliable horsepower in all their variants. Only problem was that they were mounted inverted which would require some massive conversion work to turn it cylinders up! The torque from most aero engines means that you could get away with a two or three speed gearbox, possibly one out of a boat and it would come with a reverse gear for when you have to get out of the Armco after the rest brakes fail! 🤣🤣🤣

[@mumbles2000]

while much later and mid engined, the Stanton Crop Duster Special used an inverted 4 cylinder De Havilland engine from a Tiger Moth, some of the engine solutions may apply, this car is still running and was at Goodwood in 2009, but I think a six cylinder would work well visually with the Rochet's long wheelbase and to my ear Ranalah Rochet sounds more period than Ranalah Rocket kzbin.info/www/bejne/bWbJgoVoptVljtE

[@guerrillaradio9953]

If he's allowed WW1 engines, either Hispano-Suizas, or Bugatti aero engines, but he may have to sell the Porsche, and maybe the house to buy one 😳 .... can't really go wrong with a Napier Lion or Sea Lion variant, either. No aero engines from that time period are inexpensive, though, so I'm sure he's in for a penny, in for a pound.

Hi Dom, a bit of a long shot but last weekend I was at Old Warden aerodrome to see the shuttleworth collection, one thing that I did notice was quite a few first world war aero engines in the sheds, maybe they might be interested in parting with one, it could be good media coverage for both of you, good luck, I love the channel.

[@petesmith2132]

What you need now is a Liberty L12 aero engine. These date from the Great War, and were designed and built in the US. Being only 27 litres, and fairly light and compact, I think that it would fit the bill. A land speed record car, called the White Triplex, was constructed around 100 years ago, with THREE of these engines!

The Liberty V12s are the playthings of people who heat their Boathouses with soiled ten pound notes to keep their Mahogany Dual Cockpit Runabouts warm in the winter.

I agree fully with your purchase decision Dom; firstly you got the intro and the thumbs up from fellow knowledgeable enthusiasts on Edwardians, and secondly you fell in love with the looks of the (potential) beast and this is SO important as a future driving force. So in a nutshell, you did correctly in securing this rolling chassis and don't eat yourself up about the decision, you will get used to it very, very shortly and start smiling to yourself about it! Sometimes you just HAVE to snap these things up whilst they are on offer. Now you only need a straight eight or a V12 to go in it, but will one fit length wise?? !!

Love your style - "Some of these pre 1918 engines are far too common, let's find something even rarer" 😂My first thought was to find something French, but it seems an awful lot of engines originating from that country were either radial (rotating crankshaft) or rotary (stationary crank, not Wankel) which present significant issues, when fitting to a car!

Here's an angle for you Mate! 😎Since it has an engine, can you find another one & do a twin engine configuration?
