I'd settle for one of these.......was thinking a miglia front modified would get you a good starting point

Abarth 205 Monza looks good. Deep doors to allow for wide wheels.

I wonder what a Maserati a6g outline would look placed over an mx5. Bit like was done on the 250 swb with the yellow line. Scaled down to allow for the mx5 wheelbase. Side view would be easier to work with.

I think Aston put a stop to that build. The builder had to change the tailights and it became a one off. Plus the donors are quite scarce. Mk6 Toyota celica convertible or something like that.

Need a sensible four seater? How about this 1947 Paris Salon concept from Franay.



And if Chris leaves the B***ley badges off I'm sure Crewe will be fine with it...

A few changes then...

I checked and Frank Dale is still trading as an independent RR & Bentley specialist.

That way it keeps the wedge shape but fixed lights at the front.

I spotted this car/design airbrushed (nearly lifesize) on the wall of a warehouse in Spain a few years ago. I just hade to take a photo of it when I saw it.

Its a sort of mix between a Cobra, Zagato & Austin Healey.




I think it looks pretty cool.

Don't know how to take photos off other sites but Ant Anstead makes some pretty neat cars saw this one down at Goodwood a few years back. Some nice styling touches
