I haven't seen one of these in years, they were always popular around French holiday resorts. Open top motoring probably doesn't get more cheap and cheerful, okay maybe just cheap if were being honest!

[QUOTE=Sarc;3771393]



Any more photos of this car? I love it! I have never seen one in that color. I love the wheels.



Don't you love the whitewall "Sears Radial" tires? Note the spare tire behind the seats. A lot of cool details on this car.



Note the angle of the "outboard" auxiliary lights.





Are the horns to move rhinos out of the way?



Is the lock to keep the "locals" from stealing fuel?

Nice post scottmandue .........here is more of that RK Spyder

http://www.theautochannel.com/news/2005/06/21/131805.html

Quote:
Alfredo Stola's new exotic sportscar, created in cooperation with renowned Porsche tuner, Alois Ruf was introduced in Italy a couple days ago.

...................The supercharged 3.8 liter engine of the RK Spyder provides a 420 bhp (305 kW) at 7,000 RPM and 450 Nm torque at 5,500 RPM. The acceleration from 0 - 100 km/h (0 - 62 mph) of the 3.8 liter RK Spyder with a RUF Kompressor Engine takes only 4.5 sec., from 0 - 200 km/h (0 - 125 mph) only 13.8 sec. The maximum speed is 285 km/h (175 mph)."
