look what i found today (any guesses??)

[mr-reno-139]

still havent cleared my friends barn
todays mission was supposed to be sorting out scrap engines and boxes from 3 long forgotten lock up garages

found 6 ha1 5s boxes !!! several 5g engines and boxes etc and this chassis and kit of fibreglass bits and pieces

i do know what it is but does anybody else ?
yes it is for sale probably go on ebay when we check how many bits are supposed to go with it !!

Hmm, it's red, looks like a single seater with that rollbar at the back, no space for a real engine in the front...

Schumacher's 2006 F1 car?

 

[mr-reno-139]

no guesses yet
cant be that many kit cars based r4/5 and with 3 wheels !!
just the thing if you have got a rusty r4 and no mates to take with you

Is it a Hudson Kindred Spirit?

 

[Andrew C]

I'm pretty sure it is a Hudson as well. There are two versions from what I can remember, the Free Spirit single seater and the Kindred Spirit tandem two seater

Whatever it is I hope that steering rack isn't bolted on. The angles on the steering arms would make for a very exciting drive. Hope whoever takes on the project moves the rack somewhere more sensible.

full marks (no prizes though)

well your right malcom and andrew

hudson, it is believed free spirit although could be 2 seater version
(would probably fit clementine and fredrick in though whichever version it is)

rack is bolted in but no torsion bars so wishbones at wrong angles
who fancies putting it together ? get rid of all that rusty r4 bodywork forever and just reuse the mechanical bits
have thought about it myself , any offers from anyone b4 it goes on ebay?

Thre's a whole Husson Owners Club for those things. Check out the for sale section for a familiar looking picture - wonder if it's the same one?

hi malcom (and everybody else reading )

found same site my self seems a little out of date compared to the info on here !!
not sure if it is same one as kit was bought awhile ago by another friend of mine (who is working in jersey)think at least 10 yrs ago
arent you tempted ?

I've been tempted by all the pictures you've posted, but I'd only end up with a big barn full of cars that don't work (and I've already got one of those).
