Description

The Tornado Typhoon is an English sports car that fulfils the classic motorsport philosophy of “leaving out everything superfluous” 100%.

Its basis was a Ford chassis and engine, onto which a lightweight sports body made of GRP was mounted. Thus, 540 kg kerb weight with the twin-carburettor setup meets over 40 hp, providing plenty of driving fun.

This example was purchased in Germany as a restoration project and completely rebuilt from the ground up. Great importance was placed on originality and the quality of the work. Numerous invoices, lists, drawings and correspondence with specialists and suppliers can be found in the folder.

The attention to detail and dedication to the restoration are also reflected in the specially made model in approximately 1:18 scale.

The vehicle comes with a tonneau cover, a hardtop blank, a mould for the plastic windscreen, plenty of accessories and documentation. It is currently registered in Luxembourg

If you want a fun car that you won’t find on every street corner, then the Tornado Typhoon is exactly right for you. I am also offering a Reliant Sabra in the same quality and from the same source.

Private sale by arrangement, viewing by appointment in Dornbirn.
