Which is currently sitting at £50 on <Fleabay>
to look like this>


A new SVA would be required of course.

anything is possible, its only grp, can handle quite well too.. looks like its got q plate already and a v5 so all you would need would be mot, not an sva if you still have the same chassis etc

would be harder to get the backend shorter cause it will be on leaf springs, unless you change to trailing arms, blah blah etc

my daily driver is a primera, and im not an oap, so relative to that it would be great, but in all fairness i have had had some great drives in a friends dut, she handles well in my humble opinion

I would be concerned,vehicle is over 20years old.putting that right might not be worth it IMHO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!AND whats his reserve ,cant be worth much more

Built a Melos back in the 80's, and did a few body mod's on it. Nothing major but as you can see changed the appearance quite a bit.

Melos
As has been said anything is possable. Would say that the Dutton chassis needs a fair amount of work, to bring it to a par with the se7en one. Regards, Ray

I belive this was a Dutton Phaeton





So yes you could restyle it

I think I'll go for your design; but in black with red piping!

I had a Melos , B-Type and a Phaeton, they where OK cheap fun motoring , I think Tim Dutton has always been a bit underated.

Seems a shame to cut these cars about and lose them , especially when actual Locost stuff is so reasonable.
