Description

This ninety year old machine is awesome. Very steam punk hot rod retro machine indeed.
Unbelievably interesting. I hope you all agree. I mean, check them headlights out, they're awesome. !!
Although it appears by all intents purposes to be finished, it's not. But in saying that, the chassis is absolutely solid and perfect.
They've adapted the original wheels to fit. I'm not sure what back axle it is, but the front is all new.
New breaking, new discs, new calippers, ect. Wonderful Rover v8 and 3 speed automatic box
Seems to run and select all gears all fine, but make no mistake.
This thing feels dangerous. It doesn't steer properly and it doesn't stop at all, although the brakes are all there.
My opinion is it needs maybe a brake servo system fitting. The steering has an ingenious electronic power steering fitted from a, I think, Corsa
but not in the right place and it feels very notchy and unsafe. My opinion, it doesn't want much as money as time.
