Milford Cubicle Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Does the taxi have a B-series diesel in it? The ADO17 pick-up and Austin 3-litres are wonderful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mk2_craig Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Seem to be more Wolseley Wedges surviving than perhaps was once thought. Nice little article on KYT1-20P over on LeylandPrincess.co.uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M'coli Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Wasn't that Minissima penned by one William Towns who was also responsible for that temple to supercar shite the Aston Martin Lagonda?Yes, as was this kit car: Did he not have a pair of compasses, or a set of french curves? He must have drawn the wheels around a 10p piece or his cup of coffee... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr_Bo11ox Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Check the 'italic serck' font on those plates! I bet he designed that too. I remember seeing some of those Hustlers at a car show when I was a nipper and being knocked out by how futuristic they were, they almost seemed unreal with their big flat tinted plate glass sides. I think he's responsible for the Hillman Hunter and Aston DBS as well. There was a class interview with him in C+SC a couple of years ago, at his home (which he had designed). I think he was restoring a Maserati Mistral or an AC 428, cant remember which it was. i think he's no longer with us now however. A king of shite!

Split_Pin Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 That blue Farina is wonderful as its colour scheme reminds me of an extremely shite metal 60's pedal car I have in my parents' loft!

vicsmith Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 Anyone know what kind of survival rate those Land Lobsters have? I remember someone from Practical Classics was farting around with one, T-cutting it and that a few years ago, don`t think it was ever mentioned whether it got on the road or not, but I remember him saying that the numbers were into single figures - are those two black ones pretty much it?
