World Citizen Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 I don't see any moving linkages or moving parts, grill surround and pillars all look like one part so just can't see how it folds away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busybee Posted November 17, 2019 Author Share Posted November 17, 2019 I don’t know to be honest. The base of the uprights are not bolted down to the engine lid by the looks of it. The area where the uprights join the engine lid looks slotted to maybe allow the uprights to retract down into the engine bay. It’s Singer so might be a very trick mechanism Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phill Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 Doesn't look like it closes to me and as you say, where is the coolng air getting in if it does? It's a shame if it doesn't retract as it spoils the lines. The retractable 964 jobbie would be far better but maybe there isn't room for the mechanism?

Busybee Posted November 18, 2019 Author Share Posted November 18, 2019 No idea why that couldn’t have been the “normal” singer retractable 964 spoiler with that lovely mesh detail on it. Would have been near perfect. Still wouldn't kick it out of bed. More Margot Robbie with a wonky toe 😂 You know it’s there but you just don’t care.

786 Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 (edited) man, you're really into this car. i can connect you with the owner if you'd like to fluff him personally? 918 and fezza you said Edited November 18, 2019 by 786 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busybee Posted November 18, 2019 Author Share Posted November 18, 2019 Hope fluff means congratulate lol 😂. Gone offit now. Dreams shattered by a fixed wing 😜 Nice pair there. The garage looks shocking though! Easy mill and a half of cars in a grotty garage. Shocking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sopor Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 Looks like Monaco number plates? Garage probably worth more than the cars, avec ou sans grot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Previous one was a nice blue 'standard' model. 1 hour ago, sopor said: Looks like Monaco number plates? Garage probably worth more than the cars, avec ou sans grot. Correct sir.

Busybee Posted December 12, 2019 Author Share Posted December 12, 2019 Still love the details on this car. For 6 or 700k, sure they'd fit a flippy up rear spoiler tail for me 😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
