What we all need in our lives is a lump of Aussie steel with a lump of British alloy under the bonnet.

 

Ladies and gentlemen, there is a P76 for sale.

 More history from the Totalkitcar website :


Lancastrian David Boler ran a popular exhaust fitting centre in Oldham and was also the man behind this quirky-looking hot rod creation that he called the Boler T-Bone.


He had previously raced an Elva Courier MkIII and Cox GTM so it’s entirely known what prompted his desire to produce a Model T-inspired kitcar. Early examples were built on the first floor of his exhaust shop and hoisted to the ground when completed.


They moved to a bigger premises in Greenfield in 1972, which incidentally is the same building later occupied by Harold Dermott’s D&H Fibreglass, later Midas Cars.


T-Bone body was steel panels with GRP wings and what was described as ‘substantial’ ladderframe chassis underpinning the whole ensemble. Ford Cortina provided the running gear, transmission and engine.


Boler’s celebrity mates, comedian Bernard Manning and fire-eating clown/magician, The Great Stromboli, both owned T-Bones and the latter even decked his out with fireman’s ladders and buckets!


Between 1971-74 we reckon about thirty T-Bones were sold.

Folks, if anyone wants this it's 12 miles from me and I can offer temporary free off road storage. Could probably collect it, but only if you pre book an MOT.
