Weirdest/Most interesting banger you've ever seen


Recommended Posts

Posted

What is the weirdest or most interesting car you have ever seen in the bangers? For me, it would be the Granny Limo which was at the team meeting. Has anyone seen anything stranger?

Not quite as weird and wounderfull as the 1926 Daimler Hearse, but last March at Arlington i saw this MGB GT,

Looked good and was quick, but as you can see it didn't take much to take it out of action  checkeredflag.gif

The Jaguar XJS Eventer V12 Woka raced at Civil War 1. We thought it was going to be a bit of lemon after the first race but he went on to win the Unlimited DD, the car just would not die. thumbup.gif

In the early '80's someone raced a fiat 500 in with the overs at the now defunct Newton Abbot. Infact there was also someone that raced one of those small, old suzuki ' compact' hatches in with the overs, and he actauly won the heat race. He didnt fare to well in the final as he spent most of the race being spun out by the others........once they caught up with him.

He normally races a red Cavalier. I will tell you the following. In one of the program's they reffered to him as Brian (The Snail) Rigby (Cavvy). Maybe he just brought that out for the fun meeting (The Skyline). Maybe he thought he would be better off in it. He was still no use.
