I have pics somewhere of one of the 1st completed rollers, but I can't seem to find them. I know pics of the car were floating around here on CC for awhile as well. Perhaps Ron can help us out; he's the master of finding old pics / articles when prompted. -Lil' help here Ron!!!!!!
The car I have pics of was kind of a Teal color (almost mint green if I remember right).
I didn't care for the color, but the rest of the car looked to be very well built.

The pix are in my gallery. The color does not come out true, it was Viking blue, the 1964 FIA colors.

Yes, the cars were to be imported from AC when Jimmy Price had the operation, the Lubinsky double cross eliminated the deal. Brian Angliss walked away circa 1996 and has NO connection to AC or Autokraft in any way. The ACs were to be handled by a new dealer network, not the SPF dealers.

Doesn't matter much now, the patient has expired......................
