Wow! An Elan dune buggy. First of those I've seen. I'm betting it doesn't look like that anymore.

Would love to find it ...

The plus 2 has not been taxed since 1987 so its stored in some garage somewhere, exported or has been scrapped

For the top pic, love the old school slit curtain shutter motion from top to bottom (if I think rightly).

I acquired an Elan bodyshell with some similarities to the one in the first post although the wheel arches are not the same but I suppose could have been changed. The seller was on behalf of a deceased estate and had no information at all about its history or where it came from, does anyone recognise it?
