I hope that pic is distorted and the car doesn't actually look like that. Looks like it has 15" wires on the front and 12" wires on the rear. Like some kind of front wheel drive monster-car.

Thx for post, never seen this type of Morgan before.

Thx. Still kinda like the original pic tho!

Could just imagine it being powered by massive big-block General Motors 455 V8 with front wheel drive and, say, chain-driven transmission, and a wooden chassis.

Little bit of understeer maybe but it'll be fine. .

That'd make it a Marcos, not a Morgan.

This was the subject of a competition linked to the NEC Classic Car Show a few years back. Prize was a box set of "GT Racer" which I very much wanted, so I spent ages in work searching for it, found the right answer, sent it in. Never heard back from them.

Seeing as that was done so quickly does anyone know what this is?



Edit - photo was taken in Australia if that helps.

It has something of the Rootes Arrow range about it.

The pic in the op does make it look proportionally very different. If that style appeals to you, then you'll love the Cheetah.

I thought it was a Nissan Sunny earlier (the question is asked in its own thread) but I couldn't find a matching picture when I did a quick google.

Edited to add quote!

c.1968 Toyota Corona?

It's an early-70s Mitsubihi Galant.

And another turns up on my door step in Historic Racing Technology magazine.



Thanks for the replies and by all means carry the thread on as a quiz. These challenges can be good fun.

Andy.
