Does Anyone Remember This??
« on: February 01, 2008, 22:42:16 »


I remember it being on the cover of 'Motor' when it was announced back in 1977.
The obvious influences being the Tyrell P34(?) & 'FAB1' (well, possibly??)

I'm sure I saw it at the Motor Show either that year, or the year after.

I would never have remembered it without the aid of the pics, but it does ring a bell in the depths of my brain cell (singular!). I was only 13 at the time, but that probably means I thought it was brilliant  :lol: Now, I think it has a certain retro chic. But you wouldn't want to be a shy retiring type to drive it in public  :lol:

If want to walk it walk it, if you want to ride it ride it just leave me alone to drive it!

Don't waste your time on jealousy; sometimes you're ahead, sometimes you're behind. The race is long, and in the end, it's only with yourself. !!!
