The Blue
Train Special
An authentic Aero Car (Vintage
1930)
As featured in the February
2005 issue of the Robb Report.
The Bluetrain's story is among
the more remarkable automobile
tales around. Seven years in
the making, the Blutrain was
constructed in a 13th century
country mill in southern England
by devout craftsmen. A master
wood-worker and violin maker
by trade, found and used a stately
Ash tree, hewn from a manse
in Devon (and carefully seasoned),
for the structural wood in the
body. Next, he selected the
finest burls with which to enliven
the interior. All marvelous
elm wood from a single cured
tree: grain matched, and inlayed
with mother-of-pearl and fine
silver. What an instrument indeed!!
From the raw power of the 6½
litre supercharged engine and
the 5 speed overdrive transmission,
to the finer gentlemanly appointments
of the interior, no expense
was spared. It is fitted with
genuine Bentley and Rolls parts
from boot to bonnet. A fabulous
combination of raw power and
comfort.
Although it is proudly reminiscent
of the classic motor cars of
old, the Bluetrain boasts the
smooth ride of more modern touring
cars.
The Bluetrain enjoys power steering,
power brakes, adjustable suspension,
there are even twin radiators
on board to support the air
conditioner. Even in a 100 degree
weather, going 80 mph on a long
journey, the air conditioner
can run at full blast without
a concern for watching the temperature
gauge. This car runs as cool
as the other side of the pillow.
The Interior is truly meant
for gentlemanly style and is
fitted with two matching liquor
cabinets. Each features antique
crystal decanters. Everything
imagined for your touring comfort.
The Bluetrain sports an award
on its maiden show. You can't
beat that!
