  • Ah, but it's not a JAP -- it's a Matchless MX2, which happens to be a bit quieter than every JAP ohv engine I've ever heard. If I ever get around to re-shooting this I'll get sound of my crunchy shifting.

  • Freeman8128 -- it's been done, as has a 4-cylinder version with two Scout two-stroke twins. A bit nose heavy!

  • Yep, we Morgan three wheeler owners are all waiting to see how this works out. A local friend has ordered one.

  • supervanII, I see you have a three wheeler that's backwards! What others are in your collection besides a Robin?

  • No. There is no venue within 500 miles where I could race it with other early vintage vehicles and I don't consider it reliable enough! It has been on a few race tracks, though -- Shelsley Walsh hillclimb circuit in the UK (back in the 50's) and Road America in Wisconsin in 2004.

  • I owned this car in England in the 1950's. It is truly wonderful to see it today in such wonderful condition; a great credit to its American owner. In October 2008 I am going to the USA to see it again after over 50 years!

  • Poltag modestly doesn't mention that the person sitting in the car (in the black and white photo at the beginning of the clip) is him -- note the "L" on the front of the car, denoting him as learning to drive.
