Been thinking of something smoll to have since not doing much distance these days, and always loved Smarts...

EML is on, which they say is potentially due to rotted exhaust around the sensor...if it had a longer MOT I'd be tempted if it was cheap enough!

I've never seen a carb/intake layout like that before!

Definitely an interesting one. With old American V8s I always expect them to just be sitting in the valley.

They had the same layout on some of the Chrysler 300 letter cars 

think it’s something to do with the way the torque is delivered at low rpms , my brother told me years ago

Yes, AFAIK that's right, it's called a Cross-Ram inlet.  When I was first model-building in the 60s it was one of the options on my Airfix-MPC 1/25 1966 Dodge Charger.

@eddyramrod beautiful but also a touch too expensive

Absolutely, but HFM?  It had better be the best example on the planet for that!

What is that silver box to the left of the wiper motor, a replacement air blower/heater or a CB radio?

Also that fuel pump will leave you stranded. Edit it has no Jubilee clips!

Possibly an old part of radio equipment, it looks like an antenna plug on the side, has vent holes. Did some valve car radios come in two boxes, part in the dash, part elsewhere?

The heater won’t work too well without it’s fan and ducting…

I thought it could be more oil related. The tubing exiting from the front is solid, like fuel or brake line. It has a  joint which is similar to one I have on my Westminster. That is on the line for the pressure gauge. If I recall correctly.
