Anyone any ideas?

This doesn't seem quite right. Don't know why. The yellow car has been re advertised on ebay a couple of times.

Looking at the sides and nosecone and what bit you can see of the interior it looks like a Locust. The yellow car is probably just a picture he's borrowed from someones website.





yours, Pete

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

i seem to recall that picture of the yellow indy on there was on here a few months back.

something about that "ford 7" looks very very wrong

The front and rear wings are resting on top of the wheels NOT attached to the car.

I'm sure I've seen that yellow Indy on here recently as well, maybe they're a member of this site? Either that or they've half inched the photo...

Locust

Sure looks like a Locust to me, the slab sided body and the hint of wood gives it away, ahhhh takes me back, built one of these in the late 80's first experience i had of 4 wheels that included more sawdust than grease!!!!

IN BIG WRITING it says that the picture showing the yellow car is just to show what it could look like.

Of course, this text may have been added after you gut's saw it

Locust for sure, there was one for sale in a local back street garage un SVA'd said on a ticket on the windscreen "built by an engineer".
What put me off was the way the 6 inch bolts holding the gear box cross member in place had been bashed over with a hammer,I kid you not.
