December dreamtime
It seems the flow of edwardian racers popping up from barns and history never ends. Last weekend Duncan Pittaway presented his 28 litre Fiat clearing its throats after 100 years. Now don't be afraid that this was the very last racing car to be discovered or to be recommissioned. Charles Walmsley sent this photo of Mariano de la Fuente with his Lancia Theta (or is it Kappa?) sponsored by Michelin (see bonnet), probably to showcase their new disc wheels in 1913 or shortly after. The same Mariano won the 1924 Argentine open road long distance Gran Premio with a Studebaker. So let's start to the hunt and track down both the Lancia and the Stud. Well er... the Studebaker is still known and was sold by Christies in the time they were still into car auctions. As you may know the motorcar staff moved on to Bonhams USA. You never know, they may know about Lancia as well...
(note: the photo is distorted, no the car...!)

So nothing to do with the Lancia, and unless you were there,which I doubt, the rest is fiction!

Mark Walker( 200 H.P.Darracq} is seen in the video of the start up of the S67 Fiat he was switching over the ignition back and forth between the coil and and magneto ,hence the flames bouncing back and forth between the front and rear exhaust stubs.It apparently
idled as sweet as a nut once it settled down
The sparks were apparently from a over rich from the priming.

Would someone please explain what Kier Helberg's comment has to do with the Lancia. Or is it just a joke in rather bad taste? Either way it should be deleted.
editor: probably a hoax

The De La Fuente's Studebaker is now back in Argentina and it's housed in an important private collection.
