Thrust SSC Goes To The Motor Show!

In October 1995, the partially completed Thrust SSC was present at the London Motor Show, attracting enormous amounts of attention from the public. Even getting the car to Earls Court was a massive undertaking, involving a 100 ton crane to lift the car over power lines and onto the transporter. The story is told elsewhere on this Web Site, but here are some more photos of the event.
