I think you might be right. They have only just stopped making the Hillman Hunter in, can't remember which Country :-[
Still making them...sort of: http://www.ikco.com/products/bardo.aspx - also the Peuegot RD is a 405 body on Hunter mechanics...


That is the low compression version Avenger engine as well, hmm 90mm pistons (the 7.8 are heavily dished) and a Kent cam would liven that up A LOT ;D

I always much preferred the Manta over the likes of the Crapi, it handled and drove a shit load better to with better engines to boot!

I wonder if the Crapi's rear cart springs had anything to do with its crap handling?  ::) :y :y


A lot

Hence the popularity of spring clamps

All they do is make the rear end even worse on modern roads due to rendering then incapable of tracking the road!
