VW Karmann Razor coupe things.

Carefully crafted by Karmann craftsmen, then loaded on a lorry.

Edit, correction, BMW 700s, not VWs.

Just ring Jeff.

Like phoning Ford and asking for Henry.

'Sorry, Jeff's not in at the moment, he's off out thrashing the tits off a Cortina, how can I help?'.

Only one made in 1948, and it's still around.

Fountainbridge, Edinburgh.  Building became Fat Sams in the 80s. Demolished around 2008 but part of the frontage was saved and rebuilt nearby.

Jensen sold to Harry The Bastard and broken for spares after that robbery.

Mr Murad was quite an eccentric gentleman, he made machine tools for a living.

The gay deceiver? What  you mean s/he is still in the closet?

I looked at this when it was for sale a while back.  Amazing car, complete white elephant, but an interesting story and well worth restoring. The front wings are completely flat on top - handy for your tool kit, or your pint if you happen to stop at a country pub.

Murad built the whole car in house, including the engine,  but oddly bought-in the gearbox which you would think would be an easy thing  for a machine tool manufacturer to make.

In fact a mate offered to go halves with me, but usual story, too many projects, where do we put it, etc.

More info on the Lathes UK website.

Those are BMW 700s. Not sure why they're on a Belgian truck, though

Lancia.

And that's a Steyr 530 with body designed by artist Karl Rob

It is a Steyr, although you can see where the confusion came from . . . .
