Autosport Manx Replica??
To put it Ron's words..."I found it under a tree in a field and paid
$100 for it.
The only things I've kept since then are the body and the windshield
frame, as the rest was unusable. I've been told the body was made
by Autosport International in Vancouver WA, but I haven't researched it.
I did a ground-up restoration on it, time and money permitting over the
last 5 years. I replaced the pan with a clean '63, with a stock swingaxle
transmission.
The color is a 90's Dodge Malibu Yellow. Last summer I decided
I wanted to go fast, so I built a 2016cc w/Weber 44IDFs, Bugpack cam, 42x37
heads, 1-5/8" exaust, balanced, full-flow oiling, Berg parts, etc.
Future plans call for more go-fast parts, as I have a close-ratio transaxle
built by Strictly German Autowerks ready to install, and recently picked
up a set of Weber 48IDAs for it. A bigger cam and heads are also
planned. The car is slowly making a transition to a street racer,
time and money permitting of course.
