Title: Attica
Post by: blob on May 26, 2008, 07:33:58 pm

Looks like Andy's selling his Attica, interesting how the rear screen's glass, though what a nightmare if you break it.

Hi Bob, I remember Alan Hitchcock mentioning a converted Nobel up his way that used a Heinkel engine. I think the general consensus was that a 4 stroke was better than 2.

Hi Blob. I think that a villiers twin 325 would have transformed the car from a slug to a nice little runabout. By the way the track of a Noble is only three quarters of an inch wider than the proposed....... three eighths of an inch either side, I can live with that.
