The Falconer Dodici "Rolling Sculpture"

One of the notables from the 2021 Concours d'Elegance of America is the completely scratch built Falconer Dodici. The breathtaking polished aluminum mirror-like exterior is joined at the seams with flowing lines of rivets. “Randy Grubb is a master of forming aluminum by hand, and his latest work called the Falconer Dodici is among his best creations yet. The design takes inspiration from the streamlined 1937 Delahaye Type 145 but amplifies the huge curves even further. Watch how he builds it in this clip, and then see the roadster on the road at the end. Watching Grubb at work is amazing. He’s clearly a master craftsman because he uses just a few tools to do magical things with aluminum panels. The Falconer Dodici is full of beautiful design touches, but the best might be the grille that takes its shape from a Tiffany glass vase. The aluminum roadster doesn’t lack for power either because a massive 600-cubic-inch (9.8-liter) V-12 sends 640 horsepower (477 kilowatts) to the rear through a six-speed automatic. In a really attractive touch, the individual throttle bodies integrate into the hood.” — By Chris Bruce, motor1.com
