Mystery car.

[Z Victor 1]

This was at the car show at Ashover, Derbyshire today. Never saw the owner, but it looks like one of the many kits that appeared in the sixties. Anybody recognise it?

Interesting, it has got a bit of 1960's Alfa Romeo about it !!

Moss Mamba - based on an Alfa Sprint Spyder styling, often used a Triumph chassis, built between 1983 -85

Ah, OK, thank you ....

The overall shape wasn't bad, but the detail in terms of aesthetics and function left a lot to be desired. Crude external door hinges etc,etc.

Sweet little car!

The original Mini had external door hinges too.

Tony.

 

[Z Victor 1]

Probably the same ones!

 

[Paul Rice]

All down to taste but the hinges would have probably looked better colour coded to match the car, saying that i dont like chrome gills on the Z3
