I guess this is the thing I like most about the British cars. There is always something new to learn about.

Well... That one is definately not in my visual memory databanks. I bet Coldplugs will know what it is.
 
Fiberglass body, TR3 or MGA drivetrain, built Isle of Mann?
 
roachdale?

jesse
 
EB built on a ford chassis and possibly with the e93a engine?
 
Maybe an underhood picture will help.

That's made it WORSE!!! A 24D dizzy and HS2's duct taped, what appears as a positive ground system, TUBES for lower A-arms and coil-overs mounted well ahead of the mill....

Daimler-like rear coachwork but a front-end so TVR like as to be a copyright liability.... but then there's that high, strange hood (top, roof).

It's FRENCH!!! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/devilgrin.gif
 
My guess is an Elva Courier coupe... Whatever it is, I want one
 
If that's an Elva Courier, PLATE it. I'll eat it.
 
ford rims ford engine definite kit car from the 50's-60's
 
Another angle might help!

Busted! See other post about ebay car...
 
Definitely Ford based - looks like Aquaplane head, probably swing-axle front suspension, I think Rochdale too, but memory's getting faint . .
 
Well the answer was always right there..........
