Anaximander Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 The 1983 Westfield that Croc listed this morning that is in NC is VERY interesting if it is in fact the very first prototype of a Westfield. If I were a Westy fan and had garage space, I would certainly pursue the provenance issues and snap that car up as an incredible legacy to a company that reportedly has produced about 1500 copies of Chapman's concept. The seller reportedly has had it for 31 years and is offering it at a nice price that is still negotiable. That to me is a real potential "barn find" that hasn't been in a barn. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a find! This far south, "hillbilly" is replaced with "red neck"; as in a red neck version of May's hillbilly cat. Nice compared to most rail buggies I've seen. Must have been a kit that lost some bits along the way replaced with asymmetrical trailer lights a grill from a grill. A "fixer upper". A "mechanics dream". Loved enough for pinstripes and air brushing. Since it is a rail with no vw pan (just the rear torsion tube and trans horns), I wonder if it is titled or registered.

Vovchandr Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 Is there any value for adding UK 25 year old 7s listing? Pound conversion is favorable and maybe some will be inclined to go the import route Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pound conversion is favorable and maybe some will be inclined to go the import route There are so few who go this road that we see on USA7s - maybe 4-5 people a year. Its a lot of extra work for me to go searching different site unique to the UK. Also, not everyone in the UK will deal with an international buyer, particularly given the high rate of auto scams in the UK - I could list an option and it would not be an an option because of the seller. Some sellers will not sell to US or Europe as customs formalities are a PITA, i.e. it is not a clean quick sale. I am already sourcing parts in the UK where I have no USA option and I go over to pick them up and organize shipping myself - making a trip later this month partly for that purpose. It would be easier to take the Japan import route as that is largely turn key for a buyer although you have to hunt harder for the good value buys. But that option prevents any automated search approach because of the language issues. I have to do that one manually myself - takes too long. So on balance, I assessed no appreciable value. But if you are offering..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scannon Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 That looks like it came from the same builder in Colorado Springs that built the baby 7 shown in my avatar. I can't get on farcebook but I would like to know who the builder was. AFAIK there were 4 or 5 before the builder passed and his race car business closed. Two others were owned by members of LOCO. All three of them were on display at the LOG 35 in Colorado Springs. The avatar picture was taken on one of my autocross runs there. I was the third slowest time. The two slower than me were electric wheelchairs. If anyone has contact info for it outside of farcebook please let me know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
