Update from mike today he lived in skipton North Yorkshire when he bought the car,he kept it for around 4 years before selling it to a young guy in skipton (£4000) he modified it and let mike have ago in it,then at some point it had a problem and set fire,as far as mike knows it then went south but he never heard of it again..
Again many thanks for information

Yes my hunter had nothing between the carbs and exhaust so I made an alloy samwich plate for mine(wish I still had it never seen one in years)
