Ah, the Midget was a ringer, shouldn't have thrown it out so soon Not sure it qualifies as a car, anyway.

I've been looking at cars I remembered as being atrocious, but the loving restorers trick them out so that they look pretty good!

Keep 'em coming, gents.

You may never see one of these things. It's a sort of bizarre cross between a Lotus Elan (thats the back bit you can't really see here) and a duck billed platypus (thats the front bit). The rear section is built in Tipton and the front in Malta. Destined to sell in single numbers..... (according to several e-mails from Finland, 'Kamala' happens to mean 'hideous' in Finnish!)

If anyone's selling any of these there may be a demand, but only if worn





yours, Pete

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

This gets my vote, the Hustler, I believe designed by William Towns of Jaguar fame.

well, everyones different but.....

I think the green thing if it wasnt green might be ok - it kinda looks like a car I saw a year or so ago at a show called a reynart.....

The dax kamala, in my view, is a really great looking car. didnt top gear or a motoring prog have one on test once?

I like it.

The only ugly kit car I can think of - and its not notably ugly - is the big luego thing - the orange object at the top of the page.

and....there was a kit called a mini scamp 30 or so years back - basically looked like a popemobile - a welded tube frame with the gaps filled in with metal at the bottom and glass at the top

In fac the hustler looks a fair bit like it, but better

Dyer mean Ronart Steve? They used to buil'em in Peterborough and damned nice they were too. The 'green thing' is a Moss Monaco, once described in a Kit Car magazine guide to the industry as a 'pop-eyed GRP oil drum on wheels', pretty accurate if you ask me

One of the TV motor mags tested it a while back, Cossie YB motor 'n all and liked it. Me? I look at it, just get to the point where I think I might start to like it..................................then don't.

Yeeesssss, I can see some folks woudn't take to the Viento, it is a little on the large side.

Wasn't that basically a kit-form Mini Moke? In which case,it was not ugly, it was 'retro' and 'cool'

Better!? I think your meds need upping again Steve!

For me nothing can beat the monstrosity that is... the Onxy Fastcat. It looks even worse from the back but I couldn't find a pic

Actually looking at it against some of the others cars in this post the Fastcat starts to look quite appealing! Maybe it's not the worst after all!

I actually like the six wheeler Hustler but can't remember it being for sale as a kit. The popeyed oildrum looks like a kid drew it out and somebody made an exact copy. The Onyx Fastcat wins as they are serious and ought to know better. The Tiffany Pete, I thought all American cars looked like that .
