Re: Kit cars Good copy  Body panels from a Le Patron fits better, front looks better:

Re: Kit cars Some time ago, maybe mid '90s, Lomax brought out something called a lambda. It looked like an improved version of the 223. I think it might be that that became Le Patron.

Re: Kit cars The B.R.A. Quite a nice looking body if classic's your bag, but looks almost as wrong with a 602 hanging out the front as it would do with a CX500.

Re: Kit cars I think this is a one-off rather than a kit, but can anyone work out what that is on the front of the motor? http://home.kpn.nl/~patron-3/tor/index.htm (more pics)

It seems to be a LomaxPatron body, with a home-made Morgan-a-like nose, but...  No, don't know. Appears to just be some kind of cosmetic cover for crank nose & points box.

Re: Kit cars It's for starting the car by hand. The text above the picture says the plate to cover up the hole is taken away..
Took more than 6 years to build, and the builder didn't work on the car for 6 years..
