Aha, great mind's think alike!!!

Was just wondering if that was a new fashion- a bit like streaking but nude soft top car driving!

Bob, I'm glad you're taking this seriously! This is fun.
OK, more clues.
The picture was taken about 1984/5. The car was a kit and sold about 20, and yes I did build it. It had a road test feature in Kit-Car at around that time.
If anyone does have the back-issue with the test, I'd appreciate a scan of it

How did you do a search? I thought that kind of info could only be got from the police or the dvla with a really good reason.

Id be interested cos id like to look for my old vehicles.

No, never knew or met SQ, and I took the picture.
No one got any mid-eighties Kit-car mags to look up the feature?

Lets get down to brass tacks. There are no returns on the arches which smacks of dutton influence i.e cheap and nasty, so could it be an ill fated eagle of some sort and do you still have her phone number. Point her to my photo archive, I'm sure that would interest here!

Actually the arches were pretty thick, you could sit on them safely (even me )
Do many have returns? I can't say I'd noticed many really except on cars with less protruding arches.

But, no there is no Dutton or Eagle connection.
