andrew e Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 Remeber these? Well this chap had a funny turn recently.... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sbarro_(automobile) ... and this was a celebration of 40 years of Geneva show attendances The real centre piece must have be irrepairably damaged or sold to a Sheik or summat, SURELY? JACLYN...
Spiny Norman Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 If that's a genuine Franco Sbarro car it's pretty restrained by his standards.
shedvan Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 Ah I genuinely thought this was a thread for a tasty gel from a coffee shop. My mistake
Mr_Bo11ox Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 What a horror that Jag based thing is, I can only assume the lad is starting to get old now and losing his faculties a bit.

AeroNautiCal Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 All the hours and expenditure that's been put into the car... And it's fuggin hideous! That gullwing door jobbie is pretty neat though.
Volksy Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 That windhawk pretty much won kitcar toptrumps IIRC
Spiny Norman Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 I was reading about the Windhawk in that old CAR just the other day. Always liked his 'hubless wheel' idea.
RedSparrow Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Looks like the work of these two twats. OH MAI FUCKIN GAWD! etc
Justin Case Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 How the mighty have fallen; I think that his 1983 SEC actually looks quite :
HillmanImp Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Rather oddly I was on my rowing machine tonight and was watching Bolt (okay, not too macho I admit) and saw the bad guys riding these at the beginning: Look familiar? I quite like the attention to detail there. They are actually proper hubless wheels. Would have probably put it down to fantasy artistic licence if I had not read this thread the night before.
