It's on aero screens, silver with red leather and carpets. Super (too much) tune 1380 engine with a 45 DCOE Webber and no exhaust to speak of. Wire wheels, old fashioned tyres, quarter elliptic rear springs. All means LOTS of oversteer, turn in, lift off, power on: It only does one thing. Me and my dear old Dad have spent five years giving it a bare metal resto.. It's very nearly finished and it's a very lovely thing. I worked on it with my Dad and I went to the church in it the day I got married.. Thikn I'll ever let it go?.. Naa. Jun 19, 2009

Severely underpowered. Mine never ran. restoration proved to be too costly and the project was ditched. Originally had something like 59 Horsepower! Beautiful design. Some day I wish to own another!Jan 02, 2008
