Went with Dad to buy this car from the Caterham area in 1963 .Great fun :eusa_angel: |
You jammy sod. More pictures!!!
It looks a total home brew on an Austin 7 Have you still got it? |
Ha ha thanks for the reply , unfortunately Dad sold it about 1965 to Buy a faster and more competitive Mini Cooper for sprints & Hillclimbs. Yes it probably was (or is ) based on an Austin 7 ! Hopefully ,IS still out there somewhere.
Theres 4 pics in the Album ,heres another for now. http://www.madabout-kitcars.com/foru...6&pictureid=53 |
Blimey ,hope this car builder is still out there

We knew how to build cars then. How to bend electrical conduit and get fancy single curvatures out of ally ,or any thing else. no silly IVA. Happy days.

It is a Dante clubman marketed in the 50's by SMA Luton. Designed by Robin Reads

Floyd, That is a fantastic link for those of us of that era. Where can I get a Pop for £10 like I did in the eary 60's? Just dreaming, the older I get the less sophisticated I want to be.
