A tow strap does not a race car make.
It's just the in thing now.
Havent seen em on non-track cars on this side of the small pond, so i might have misjudged it. The rest of the car looks relatively well built as well though.
Especially the fabric ones, they're cheaper than a 'proper' one so it's a nice cheap "look at my racing car" mod

1 of only 6 Tickford conversions ever made, only 15k km on the clock and sold by one of the most reputable Aston specialists in the world, this thing is probably worth a fortune. Definitely in the "so bad it's good" camp, but still, what were they thinking!! It was the 70's I suppose...

Yep - that has Tickford written all over it, the straight edge styling on the bodykit is a kind of trademark for them, just like the Capri above, think they did similar to the XR4i.
