I was looking at a toy I was given for Christmas about 60 years ago and was immediately taken with the similarity of it to a well known twin cam race car. The toy is basically a caricature of the real car it was patterned after, but it bears an uncanny resemblance to the Twin cam. What do you think?
Cheers,

The Schuco toy car was/is modelled after the 1934 Mercedes Benz W25.
I'd re-phrase the question.
Was the Austin Twin-Cam inspired by the W25?
