Certainly wouldnt expect 4wd YB power from looking at it, although these days any tidy old car looks fast to me as not many people to the trouble of restoring cars and leaving them standard mechanically, lol

What a random fucking car to convert!
Wheels would make me question it, but as I don't know the stud pattern of one of thse, you couldn't really tell.
Any idea why they chose one of these? Just for sleeper factor?

They have a reasonable size bay with the engine the right way around, they are light and they handle fairly well to start with, the real question is why not?

The red pug 106 was my favourite 4x4 cossie conversion I've known about at Reyland.
What ever came of that Martin? it looked great!
