Bespoke automotive specialists RÜNGE Cars have debuted their latest masterpiece, the Runge RS — a modern handbuilt race car that channels the elegance of 1950s models such as the Porsche‘s Spyder, Maserati and Ferrari.

The polished aluminum body is crafted the traditional way by being hammered over bucks and shaped with an English wheel. The curvaceous body houses an aluminum tube-frame chassis, newly-built air-cooled “Flat Four” cylinder engine with 159 horsepower, 4-speed “Longbox” transaxle and 4 wheel disc brakes. The interior is fitted with premium brown leather, classic racing bucket seats, vintage mechanical components, and a wood-rimmed steering wheel.

Take a look at the Runge RS above and share your thoughts in the comments.

For more impressive cars, McLaren has unveiled its 2019 720S Spider convertible.
