Saw this in a yard, any ideas?

I don't know if it is for sale but has been sat there for a while, I really think that it would be awesome with a bike engine, or big car engine

We had something like that some years ago, it was a Glass-Fibre Stage Prop for a musical, like 'Grease'.

 

Note the lack of Suspension.

I reckon it's some sort of Hoo Flung Dung Smart car copy

I keep seeing Smart styling but when I check things like the windscreen wiper it is not Smart.

It would be more awesome to put the bike engine in a bike, the big car engine in a big car and leave that spacehopper to slowly deflate where it is.

Prop for the all-electric re-make of Dukes of Hazzard.    Boss Hogg on a golf cart, Rosco and Enos each have a Segway and Cooter gets a cut down Wales & Edwards milk float.  

As can be seen progress is slow, but at least they have wobbed the doors shut...

Ha ha - I actually Googled that!

 

Sorry, it just reminded me of the jago shell that used to be next to the A27 by their factory.

I recon it's a crappy kit to fit a G-Wiz. The doors and door handles are very Smart, as is the silhouette. But that windscreen looks like just a flat piece of glass like a G-Wiz.

Thanks Mr nads. "Hoo flung dung" quote has brought back some fond memories of when my grandparents where alive. I was asking them what to say as I was going to a mates party and he was Chinese! Grandad came out with that!.

 

Any way back on topic it looks to be a smart car that some ones fucked

It is definitely a Smart with a G-Wizz body kit.

It is in NZ and not a Smart or G-wiz, there are small wheels under it (they look to be about 12 inches dia including tyres, I'm wondering if it is a kit to fit on a quad frame

I'm going to ask in the unit it is sat outside - for info I have a 2.5 turbo engine from my old Subaru Legacy that just needs new head gaskets loafing somewhere in the garage --and a shoehorn!

The Chinese WFD Smart copies I found on tinternet didn't have those distinctive door handles.

I think that is a childrens playground, not a yard.

No it's Mitre10's storage warehouse in Takapuna/Albany Auckland

I reckon it's a prop. A generic looking small car used in photoshoots and adverts.

 

Those handles look like Smart Roadster, the headlights from a Smart ForTwo and windscreen from a G-Wizz.
