Sammio Spyder For Sale

Lovely! This is bound to sell quickly. He's done a very neat job inside and out. Matter of interest, what combination of wheels and tyre has he gone with?

Gary (or anyone else) - Do we know whether or not Dave has successfully sold his Sammio at this point?

Thanks!

I know he visits this forum regularly so he might have read this already.
I hope to see he over the next few days so I'll pass on your interest. :thumb:

Looks a nice example as you don't often see the car in dark blue paint :dance:


I think I would best describe it's MOT history as "chequered"

The rear outriggers...surely an MOT tester might consider them dangerous. But at least they look really good...

It's based on a 13/60 Triumph Herald and the motor looks standard.
The way I'v understood it 13/60 is 13 =1300cc and 60 = 60BHP.
It's old brother was the 12/50, 12=1200cc and 50 =50BHP.

I could be wrong! :yawn:
