JeeExEll 15515 Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 Looks a bit like what a 'revived retro' new Hillman Imp might look like after it's been through the bloat-and-big-wheels design process. A previously small car model now the size of a Granada. Leyland Worldmaster, DSdriver, adw1977 and 1 other 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites

TataBobu 618 Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 That manifold looks like it carries two carburetors, the front bumper looks like something from the '60s or early '70s, and the wheel rim looks like a Citroen one. I'm lost. Link to post Share on other sites
