The steering on standard Reliants is a joke too.  |

a bit more info, its from a kitten, so assume vac gauge. The guy that bought the kitten is gonna put a bike engine into it, not sure which one yet cos he has a choice of 2, should be a flyer though!

Seems to be a bit of a trend at the moment -saw several bike engined projects at the Billng Aquadrome rod show in Northampton at the weekend. How about a GSXR engined Reliant Bond Bug?! I was a passenger in one of these once as a teenager & still remember it as one of the scariest journies of my life. With a bike engine in place of the normal Reliant lump it must be truly terrifying. I like it though.  |

Yeah, kinda confused me too, but these were the only snaps I managed to grab before the crowds closed in round it -where do they come from as soon as you point a camera at a car?

All very nice, and nicely done Andy, but the Morris Pick-Up is something else! Morrag

Wonder what a bike engined car would be like to drive? Must be very high revving compared to a "normal" car. What would you do about reverse?
