Yep saw that. Someone has obviously put a lot of effort into this and now it's been robbed of engine and box. Looks like it might have the turning circle of a bus though.

Very interesting. You just dont realise how peoples(builders) imaginations work sometimes to come up with this sort of stuff!

Interesting is probably the nicest thing to say - more of a 'because I can' than 'because it's a good idea'  !!

that, is a nicely thought out and constructed piece of kit, strange the builder didn't carry on to complete though, bit of a shame really, tidy.Morrag

I actually really like that -apart from the fuel tank perched up high at the back -& what's the bottle on the lefthand side?
Otherwise, very impressive. I'd love to see it with the engine in place.

bottle on the side was for a radiater exspansion tank ,, it was built with a mercedes v8 in it  ,( i enquired awhile ago when it was for sale the first time.)
i did consider buying it when it was first listed as they said it was registered ( turned out to be a reliant robin v5 )

Didn't know Reliants looked so so so, hell dunno quite what it looks like but you'd never convince Mr Mot or Mr Plod it's a Robin ;)
