as I said this name starts with F, a rather common family name.

and nicanary gets a very well deserved point. If I understand the confusing texts correctly, this is a Fisher Flyer, an Austin 7 lookalike based on a Reliant Kitten.

I think you're correct in assuming that this is a kit car. The car I mentioned in one question the Flying Bathtub looks almost identical. This latter car is featured on the cover of the Reliant Kitten Mewsletter #55 and has Austin 7 hubs and wheels and a replica Austin 7 Ulster body.

A very rare point. Thanks.
