There's all the Abbott Farnham Fords as well, based on the Consul etc., and I know of one XK150 estate. I'll get to thinking some more.

Conian said: but why are they known as Shooting Brakes? A brake was a type of horse-drawn wagon, a shooting brake was a horse-drawn wagon with seats that was used to transport shooting parties out to the fields. When horsepower replaced horses the term continued to be used for the coachbuilt vehicles that were used for the same purpose.

ritmo said: This was a real factory car, you could order them. I couldn't recall it having 5 doors, so is that what is "special" about this one? I know there are a couple of XK150 estates including the "foxbat" I'll see if I can find a picture. I think I took one at XK60.

TR7 Tracer by Crayford.....   and BLs own still born take on the next generstion of TR7s.....  better than the Crayford attempt for sure. Even the convertible would have been better received than the original.
