You need glasses.

In the Uk we have a car called a Reliant which is not the same as this car.Look at other links for Reliant Robin.

Is this a Plymouth?

[gsdonovan]

Yes, a Plymouth Reliant from the United States.

Do you still have this thing running the strips today, or is it elsewhere by now? How greatly did you have to beef things up on the car to make it do this? I've got a couple of old Plymouth Horizon bodies and some ideas.... ;o]
