I don't know what it is, but it has to have the biggest rear-quarter blind spot I have ever seen. The backlight is particularly grotesque -- I swear they just grabbed the windshield off some other ca
To me it looks a bit like a Reliant Sabre / Autocars Sabra Sport (Israel's only sportscar!). The fastback version had an odd rear window, though not exactly the same as in the picture. These were fi
I doubt it's the worst blind spot you've ever seen - look at a lotus Europa - the later, the worse. I think they tried to make tunnel vision directly behind the driver with those sail pannels for som
Good point, but at least that tank slit in the Europa was about at the height of the inside mirror. On this thing it looks like the mirror would just show you the headliner (if there is one). -- Max
I think it is a Devin made in to a coupe bodied car. They have MG TD underpinnings. See the resemblance: http://asp1.walkontheweb.com/limerock/gallery_photo.asp?id=10473 http://www.tamsoldracecarsite

That's a pretty broad guess. There must be an Abarth derivitive for nearly every model of Fiat ever produced. Could you find an example of one which may have a tail end looking something like this on
I see what he means... Some Abarths had Kamm tails like that... But personally, I think that thing is too ugly to have been made in Italy. The guess that it is a Devin is probably closer, though I do

All steel??? That's a whole different kettle of fish. That either implies factory production in some kind of significant numbers, or the work of a coachbuilder, implying limited production or a one-o
Hey Gang, Devins were made outta fiberglass - This thing appears to be of a similar wheelbase as an MGA and has at least two MGA wheels on it - The rear window looks like it came from an Alfa. It loo
For those who may remember 10 or 11 days past, I was asking if anyone might recognize a particular body style given several pictures. Well, I have more pictures of the underpinnings and special body
