I was browsing this site - www.lastinterceptor.com/lastinterceptor/index.html….and was wondering if anyone has ever seen a survival car. The 2nd Mad Max movie kicked off a trend in custom motorbikes called survival bikes, basically a bike that either looked like it came from a post apocalyptic world or was designed to survive one. Never seen a car done in that style, in Mad Max 2 most of the vehicles seem to be of the muscle car variety, in reality I suspect a diesel powered (to take advantage of veggie oil, which presumably would be much more prevalent than diesel ) 4x4 of some description would make more sense.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
thats more like it, though a survival 2cv never entered my head. The purple bike thing doesent really fit in though.
BGTMIDGET7476 - how accurate a replica do you want cos getting hold of a falcon in the UK is going to be ...... interesting. In seriousness do you fancy a joint project, I'm in Nottinghamshire as well.
