The Bluebird CN8

 I was amazed by this Bluebird CN8 design on isrinmin. I'd never seen it before.


This is a model by Soldan Models and I can find very little else about this particular model.

The CN8 was a conceptual supersonic vehicle with a view to breaking speed records in the 1960's, which was never produced.

It bears a little resemblance to the Century 21 Task Force 1, especially the Tarheel blue American.


Have you come across any dart-shaped vehicles, boats or planes readers?

  1. As I recall, my old collection of 70s Hot Birds (Mattel) had dart shapes.

  2. I hold on to the belief that a record breaking land speed car should be powered through the transmission, not rocket propelled. It's unlikely that any member of the Campbell family would use a rocket/jet propelled Bluebird.

  3. Man has gotten so much out of the basic arrow, or dart shape, has he not? SFZ
