Ooooh no, don't tell me !
Wow, cannot wait for hearing that engine !
Well done Enguerrand !

PS : why didn't you give me THAT phone number !!!!

Good point is : the car I would buy myself hasn't been sold to Mark !!

Much as I would like to have bought Jeff Goodliffe's BVRT Injected hillclimber. . . . . It's not that.

Is this all a load of old Buncume?

And the car I'd / I'll buy is still available too!

Does it have one of those mega expensive rockercovers Mark? Oh I forgot they never made one! Ha

I am guessing its a sprint?

You know what, I have set myself up for a really nasty fall here haven't I.

When I do finally reveal my new project and it isn't an absolutely mint fuel injected, DowntonSpeedwellTaurus racerhillclimber that won the Monte Carlo with 4 wd & the original DNA of John Cooper & Issigonis still smeared over the front seats everyone is going to shrug & say so what.

Hey ho, serves me right for getting all giddy doesn't it

I know, you've bought that 'Project 45?' or whatever it is, the 'ultimate driving mini' thats done all of 800 miles

Very bold Enguerrand, I'll throw a signed copy of Baggot's Mini Racing book in as the prize, though at the moment it looks like I'll be keeping it !

I'm sure we're not the only ones curious about this car, I have spotted an increase in 'guest' appearances at the bottom of the page.

Hmmm French fake !! It does look to be a nice one though and they were a bloody good jeep, only the M38 could be considered better.

WELL SPOTTED AL!

It was just the first image I came across on Google images when I googled Willys Jeep.

It is however, as you have correctly spotted a Hotchkis.

I guess I should have used a pic like this one!

Hope it's not the "68 HDK Vita Fake/lookalike" a frenchman built some years ago... 2 per cent original inside. He sold it two years ago for a fair amount of money but didn't known who bought it (some rumours told of english people?)

It has to be this Mini derivative!

There'a a clue, it's not red and white and it hasn't been pulled out of a drawer.
