Well the body shell is/was Fiat 500, but it has been modded a bit with the flares,wheels,grille etc, How about STEYR PUCH?

A Steyr Puch it is!

Built in Austria. The distinctive emblem on the front gives this away.

You guys are too good.

My Steyr is a GB and it takes 18 nine MM rounds........

Interesting little car.....

Found a pic of the Steyr Puch engine .They didnt use the Fiat twin ,but a flat twin of there own ,wouldnt be suprised if it had some BMW motorbike heritage. This one was 817cc ,but I see they went as much as 950. The car had some competition success
Monte Carlo Rally, If I remember. I had a Fiat 500 about 40 odd years ago--lot of fun.

They're fantastic little cars - much better than the original Fiats - built by the Austrian arms manufacturers.

Today they are very collectible - have become cult cars because of their durability etc. Very cool. I bought one in the late seventies and spent six months trashing it around Europe before selling it at a profit.

Door and hood latch are a give away as to what it's based on.
Opps, forgot the photo. see next post.

Triumph Herald originally.
Got it! Bond equip GT

Got that right!

Okay, here's another one. Besides the obvious "what is it", what was it's mechanical claim to fame?

Bonus points: Who was the engine manufacturer for this car?

I'm thinking DAF or Simca on the yellow car.

Dottore,that yellow thing is indeed a Bond Equip GT --built on Triumph Herald bits.

Off topic, but we used to call them Harolds. It seemed to fit the car's personality.

Salmson,I reckon, but who made the engine?Salmson had a Dynastart thing out the front ,but I cant see it in the pic.
and they were twin cam. Motor may have been French. I may be totally wrong--I should get a life!!

Bob, it's not a Salmson. It's a very British car, but not one made by the British division of the French Salmson company.

And it's engine came from another country altogether.

And hey, I need a life as well.
