Yet, Another "Name This Car"
 
Supposedly titled as a Porsche, and a small car manufacturer. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1651897128.jpg

Damn seldom that it takes this group long...even kit cars.

I think it's not bad at all. I've sure seen worse kit cars, and I'll bet in person it looks impressive. I'm thinking really low and really small?

“Cimbria” derivative

cassisrot 05-08-2022 08:55 AM

Looks like it was inspired by the Miura.

Racerbvd 05-08-2022 10:24 AM

It is being converted to electronic.

Every car every manufacturer has ever produced is a "Kit Car" until it gets past the protoype or model stage and is assigned a VIN. (track only cars n/a)

All hat and no cattle. And the hat sucks.

flatbutt 05-08-2022 11:43 AM

Or ...all horn and no driveshaft. Can that thing even get out of its own way?

stomachmonkey 05-08-2022 04:19 PM

Looks like a PanteraBricklinTVR.

Steve Carlton 05-08-2022 04:52 PM

I think it's a HeardBricklin.

drcoastline 05-08-2022 05:41 PM

I am pretty sure it is an Aqulia. Short lived 1980's VW based kit car.

Racerbvd 05-08-2022 05:46 PM

The funny part is the guy who bought it was told that it was built on a 917 frame. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1652056389.jpg

And is somehow titled as a Porsche. He was also told that it use to have a Porsche engine, but I think the article posted pretty rules that out and confirms what it actually is. Thanks guys..
As I get updates and pictures of the conversation, I will share them.

Looks like a 944?

What?!

No, no no…

Bricklin; TR7; all sorts of other unattractive crap but not a Miura. And not the Miura’s big brother, either.

Nope.

It's kind of a Countouche.
