Djetset 1074
« on: July 19, 2020, 11:36:50 AM »
It will be interesting to see how far this one gets as I think it's quite tough.

So, for a point, please name the make and model of this proposed vehicle.

Is this some kind of a design study for a modernized Austin Champ?

I assume so, but to be honest I don't know what the base vehicle is as information about this car seems to be quite limited.

I have not idea, but I have my doubts. It was advertised quite extensively for a time though (just to test the market potential I guess).

Yes, it was proposed as a self-build kit car, but as I said earlier, I'm afraid I don't know what the planned based car would have been.

An update to say that I now know what the planned base vehicle was for this vehicle, which might help to find the answer to this Puzzle...
