it looks very 1950's. But I need to remove my front panel every five tears or so , for some sort of repair. This may be a problem on this car. What else have they done?

 

Still it looks very smooth and period design.

That car has been floating around for sale for a while now. It was for sale in the States for ages and now has popped up over here.

Think of the work saved rebuilidng it this way.

Able to use loads of stuff that would be scrap otherwise.

 

This would cut the body repair time in half.

 

Only problem I can see is getting in and out.

 

You could weld up the boot too and do it like a Standard 8.

Having welded everything else up, not sure why he didnt weld of the spare wheel cover, particularly as it is of no use any longer.

 

It would be stiffer for racing

 

no doubt the buyer will be selling all those unneeded parts on ebay quite soon.

 

Looks like a pedal car to me
