• Mystery F4 - can you identify it? (click on the images to englarge...)

The car was bought by Sean Moooney from Straight Six in 1986 as a vixen, which it isn’t. He then hill climbed and sprinted it in 1987 but now wants to get it out on the circuits again. So, is there anyone out there who recognizes it? If so, please contact us with information.

• Can you help identify this?

Little is known about this Imp Engined Racing Car, other than that it is thought to have been built or the build was started in the 1960's by an aircraft engineer but has been finished.

It has an Imp engine and transmission, square tubular chassis frame, all suspension and rear uprights are fabricated and it has drum brakes all round. It has no nose cone or engine cover.

The workmanship and all the details of its construction are to a very high standard and it certainly has been built to an aircraft spec.

The car has never been completed and appears to have never run.

• Can you help identify this?

• Steve Smith is trying to rebuild a mystery 500 to something like its original specification. The rear suspension is by swing axle with some professional looking wishbones at the front. The wheels are 15” but West London style with 3 bolt fitting, possibly pre-war Morris. The pedals are held in a welded in tube with no provision to remove them and the original braking master cylinder was from a Morris Minor.The rear trailing arms had a Thompson joint welded to the end securing the arm to the chassis.

  If you can identify the car, please get in touch...
