Inspiration:

The aerodynamic lines of the 1938 Mercedes W125 Rekordwagen are the inspiration behind this minimalist, contemporary work of art.

Although the Rekordwagen wasn’t a LSR car as such, it did hold the record of 432.7 km/h (268 mph) for the fastest car on a public highway from 1938 for 79 years until 2017.
