An interesting car, nicely done. What do you think the reserve is?
If it has the BMC engine and box, I wonder what has happened to the torque tube. It looks as if it still has the torque tube axle.

You have obviously not driven one of these. The handling is evil. They have no roll stiffness and mechanical brakes that can pull you first one way
and then the other. Believe me, 50mph is exciting!!

I was thinking of a MCC trials cars. London to lands end.
I would suspect a 1275 would make it scary

That should fly over speed humps. Look at the ground clearance.
No scraped sump on that one.

don't know, I think the wings are a tad trailerish and would not like to see what it does in a crash, might just come to pieces

Yes it would make a good Class 7 car and it may very well have been trialled in its life.

Reserve must have been £1000.
If it's got history it could go quite high.
I'm strangely tempted too

Even a rough Dellow would not go for under £4K
