Friend of mine had one of these for a time back in the early 90s but sold it to buy an Alfasud. Was a cool little machine and something well different

Great machines. I remember the articles in CCC at the time. Built by the late Russell Bulgin. As I always wanted one I kept the articles for years. Must see if I still have them. I think he hillclimbed it at Shelsley.

Well its been a massive labour of love,but shes nearly done
New calipers,pads,discs,brake lines,servos, master cylinders,unions,ball joints,track rod ends,gaitors
Bruised and blooded knuckles,masses of new tools
But she works,after hours of messing
Just a few(hopefully) small jobs to do for mot
And then drive it and hope i like it😁

Good work. I must get mine back on the road one day soon. It has a later large Bronze style rear bumper. |
