Description

Formosa 120GR, inspired by the racing cars from the 1950's. this car is not a replica but captures the style of the era. The design does not replicate any particular marque or model, therefore avoiding any copyright issues that some replicas have fallen foul of. The result is a stand alone classic looking 50's race car.

Correctly registered as a Formosa on the V5 logbook. This car is a rebodied classic, as opposed to a kitcar. Therefore keeps its original registration and classic car status. Historic tax class i. e 'Nil' the car has an MOT till August 2025.

The Formosa is based on a Triumph Vitesse underpinnings. Chassis, Engine (straight 6 cyl 1998cc) rebuilt 4 speed gearbox, new clutch, new brakes, calipers master cylinders, brake lines. Tyres and many other new parts.

Rewired with modern fuses with the addition of a USB charging point for mobiles/ satnav. Hazards and warning buzzer on indicators (can be turned off)
Manual choke, old school stuff.
Built by myself, chassis has been blasted and painted, steel floors, inner steel frame. Carpet with aluminium decorative panels to give car the 'racer' look. Useful lockable boot.
No roof to these cars, but does come with a Mohair tonneau cover.

Paint is very nice, you may decide to sticker it up with roundels and personnel 'race' number.
Few example on internet.
Drives lovely and sounds the part through the twin pipe back box.

Please ask any questions.
