FIAT – V24 Engine – M.C.72 Aircraft Engine

Posted on by
A V24 engine is a V engine with 24 cylinders, suitable only for very large trucks or locomotives.

FIAT – V24 Engine

M.C.72 aircraft engine
A very large V24, the AS.6, engine was built by Fiat in the early 1930s as a powerplant for the competition aeroplane Macchi M.C.72. This engine was in reality formed by mounting two Fiat AS.5 V12s one behind the other, obtaining a total displacement of over 50 litres (3,051 cu in) and a power output of about 3,100 horsepower (2,310 kW). The two units remained separated (they could be started separately) but the output shaft was shared. Between the units sat the gearbox that was used to reduce the propeller speed, and the final output shaft ran between the cylinder banks of the front engine to reach the nose of the aeroplane.

Gucci Celebrates Its 90th
Anniversary


 Gucci (The House of Gucci) which was started in 1921 by Guccio Gucci (1881–1953) in Florence , Italy. Gucci presented their fall 2011 collection at Milan Fashion Week and Creative Director Frida Giannini also launched “The Fiat 500 by Gucci” . The Fiat 500 by Gucci which was custom designed by Frida in white, black and chrome and a gucci inspired interior and will be showcased at the Geneva Motor Show in March.
















A Fiat isn’t exactly a manly vehicle when you take a gander at it but you have to admit the Europeans take their brands very serious. The fashion icons at Gucci have paired with the Italian automakers to create theFiat 500. In good taste, they have draped the gorgeous Russian model Natasha Poly atop the new vehicle with their sights set on the upcoming New York Fashion Week.


Now available in both hatchback and convertible body styles, the Fiat 500 by Gucci is coming to America next month. That’s when it’s set to make its North American debut during New York Fashion Week. Following the fashionable retro mini’s debut, buyers can begin taking delivery of theirs starting in December.

The special edition is available in either white or black, and features such unique touches as Gucci’s green and red stripe, the brand’s signature logo on the b-pillar and double-G logo on the wheel hubs. The interior meanwhile is decked out in special embroidery and leather trim. Of course, style is not an option. Gucci presents an assortment of travel accessories, small leather goods, driving shoes and gloves, sunglasses and a watch to coincide with the launch.

Unfortunately, the Fiat 500 will not arrive with Natasha inside. Thats a damn shame.
