Here's the place to chat about all things classic. Also includes a feedback forum where you can communicate directly with the editorial team - don't hold back, they'd love to know what they're doing right (or wrong of course!)
There was a thread a while ago but it's fallen out of the active threads view, probably because it's far longer than I thought since it was alive. Meh, never mind, here's a mystery motor to have a guess at:
Please only post another mystery vehicle if you were the clever bugger who guessed this one correctly, the prize for which is a freshly squashed grey squirrel with a genuine 1970s Michelin ZX tread print (155/82x13) across its furry little face.
And if you know for certain and didn't have to do any actual work to arrive at an answer, please abstain.

Those are smiths gauges, a set sitting on the shelf above my bed helps , that blue makes
me think frog eyed sprite. But I know it can't be that as the dash is wrong and so is the gear
box tunnel.

I expected that at least one of us would come to that conclusion so here are a couple of minor clues:
It's not a kit car (nor is it a limited production special).
Its manufacturer was at one time the largest wholly independent vehicle maker in its country of origin.

It is only very slightly larger than a Spridget. And it's green. I have similar difficulties with red and brown, how the hell I haven't electrocuted myself yet is something of a mystery to me.

Pete: Your challenge, should you choose to accept it, is to find something even less easy to identify and post a sneaky image taken from an unfamiliar angle.
