[rudecherub]

Looks similar to Jensen's next models, but then this was era's look.

This was to be the Interceptor ( Jensen f type )



& this is the Jensen Healey replacement

Something as unusual as this requires a PH intervention, if only to find out what the fk it is and get it under cover to stop it deteriorating further.

Could it be something thrown together for a TV show? The sort of thing set only a few years in the future?

After looking at that picture loads of times and really not recognising any of it at all, I'm beginning to think this is the right conclusion.

I don't see how sending a load of druggies up is going to help.

this is what it looks like on multimap! not that its any help!

What's it look like using Bing maps? Perhaps the oblique thingy would give more detail?

[piper]

The car is definitely not a Frua design, Monterverdi , Hensen or an ISO, looks like the body is more than probably fibreglass. I don’t think it is an FNM either, car has me totally stumped, keep everybody updated petemurphy.

multimap is bing these days! thats as good as it gets!

[king arthur]

Thinking about it, the agressive forward rake of the front which puts the leading edge of the bonnet forward of the bumper would never meet any type approval. So must be some sort of prototype or proposal.

Looks like a Leyland force 7 Coupe that has been basterdised. Could be wide of the mark though.

Proportions are completely different; I can see where you're coming from though.

Is that an XJS windscreen?
Other thought is rebodied Fiat 130 Coupe??

[CapriV6S]

He he, a Datsun 260Z-based kit car.
