Any ideas?

I've seen an Allard with similar grille. Could it be an Allard?

faksta · « **Reply #3 on:** April 11, 2009, 05:29:56 AM »

It is not Allard, no.

I now realize I was thinking Jensen. Is it an early Jensen?

It's neither Jensen...

Wheels look like Riley bolt-ons
Presumably even if it's a Riley special, there would be another name for it that you want.

It is Riley based, and it had its own name. Your post was completely right, but still not enough to get a point.

Quite so, and if it helps someone else that's fine by me!

Further move.

American?

faksta · « **Reply #13 on:** July 16, 2009, 05:56:09 AM »

No, it's not.

faksta · « **Reply #14 on:** September 27, 2009, 06:25:55 AM »

Can be found in the web.

pnegyesi · « **Reply #15 on:** September 27, 2009, 06:44:37 AM »

Was the special made in Europe?

faksta · « **Reply #16 on:** September 27, 2009, 06:47:18 AM »

Yes, it was.

pnegyesi · « **Reply #17 on:** September 27, 2009, 06:55:57 AM »

Was also built in UK like its donor?

faksta · « **Reply #18 on:** September 27, 2009, 06:57:12 AM »

Exactly

This is the Fireflash, built by Harry Ratcliffe and Jeff Goodliff on a 1933 Riley Monaco base.

Allan L · « **Reply #20 on:** January 14, 2010, 05:21:55 PM »

So it is - but I'd never heard of it until I read the last post

faksta · « **Reply #21 on:** January 15, 2010, 03:01:26 PM »

Yes, it is! Poor little puzzle goes to bed
