Just looking through a copy of Complete Kit Car and reading about i think it was mark fishers car a one off called a sprat.
He bought a silvia leader and then changed the body on it, so now is it a silvia or a sprat?

Pedant Alert.

That'll be a Sylva - not silvia.

That's actually a one off built by the owner based on a Jowett Jupiter chassis and mechanicals. It was for sale recently on Pistonheads. I can't remember what it is called but it had an Italian sounding name.

Surely if Fisher modified it, it becomes a Fisher Sportcar not a Sylva anyway

If the make was changed from Sylvia Leader to fisher sport how does that work, would it need an SVA?

No SVA required for a body conversion...that's how Banham got round it....
