Nice. Clean, and simple. Great photo too.
Never a dumb question. Wing tip mounted fuel tanks. Don't recall capacity or how much incremental range they offered, but were the signature feature for the Sky Kings
Makes me all nostalgic for Sky King.
The tip tanks are actually the mains. They hold about 50 US gallons each. Early models had no fuel at all in the wings. It was considered a safety feature - keeping the fuel away from the cabin in the event of a crash. Later models have aux tanks in the wing and engine nacelles.
Looks like a Riley turbo conversion

I love 310s. They always look like hotrods on the ramp.
The Cessna 310 and the TV show Sky King together are two of the greatest influences on my decision to learn to fly. The 310 is sleek and sexy and Sky King (and Penny) took to the sky for adventure. Beautiful airplane!
