If you missed out on the 12-unit run of $2.1 million Blower continuation cars, the Blower Junior is your chance to get an 85 percent scale replica for a fraction of the price.
we told you about last month. But the Blower Junior is the most ambitious classic evocation so far, being both bigger—an 85 percent scale version of the original car—and also boasting what will be the novelty of street legality on both sides of the Atlantic.Not that it will be suited to relaxed long distance touring.
As with its earlier mini recreations, LCC has tried to keep the new Bentley chassis components similar to those of the original car, with elliptical springs and circular friction dampers at each corner. But in the interests of safety, the braking system is upgraded with hydraulic actuation for front discs and rear drums.
two years ago, and the Junior will also have a conventional layout for its brake and accelerator pedals .Beyond the electric drivetrain, some other details have been changed. The Blower Junior’s rear body is made from carbon fiber rather than a timber frame, although this is still surfaced in 1920s-spec impregnated fabric. The reduced dimensions of the new car also mean it adopts an unusual seating layout with the passenger offset to the right behind the driver.
Junior drivers will have no need to try and deal with a recalcitrant pre-sychromesh 'crash' gearbox like those of the full-sized cars, as you merely have to choose between Drive and Reverse. There are also three power modes, selected by the spherical wooden handle tha, in the original car, was for the fuel pump. Comfort restricts the output to 2.7 hp, Bentley raises it to 10.7 hp, and Sport brings the full fury of 20hp.
