148, I might buy. But the paragraph about the trailer being lent out could indicate that a parent/supporter was at the wheel of the tow vehicle.

Copioli said in somewhere that 254/968 borrowed the drawings from their swerve drive a few years back, and putting two and two together i think it is pretty safe to assume that 254/968, 148 and 217 are all using the same swerve drive base and that 217 built. That is why in all of the 254/968 pictures there have been so many of the same parts, not for a practice, but for there 4 part semi-collaboration. It probably will wind up being a lot like the 217/229 collaboration from a few years back with them being fraternal twins, similar designs but different in many ways.
Then again this is all speculation and guessing on my part, it could just be they needed shafts and bearings from 254/968 and not anything more.
