Re: Marlins a la Frog!

Tony, I have only just seen your earlier post on the Dunkerque Roadster

Interesting front wing and roll cage mods, it was for sale in Belgium last March.

Is it an A series engine, the carb looks wrong to me ?

Regrettably I don't know which car it is

I'll try to get some info, but if french owned they are reluctant to divulge --- strange really!!

Re: Marlins a la Frog!

The carb looks like a Weber twin choke side draught.

Re: Marlins a la Frog!

Re: Marlins a la Frog!

As ever, thanks. We have old pics of the car (almost a readable kit number, but not quite - 1247-B ??)
and a VIN on another (French produced?) plate

Re: Marlins a la Frog!

Yeap, I think that is a french product, I had to get one made for my Brian james transporter when I registered it here as a veteran trailer(older than 30 years). They are very similar.

Re: Marlins a la Frog!

I think i got it wrong, another berly in Nord Pas de calais, south of Waterloo/Lille -- a quick glance led me to think they are the same car -- sorry!

Re: Marlins a la Frog!

Thanks, the Berli above we know but need to look further at this Roadster, not immediately obvious which it is, I don't recognise the dash, and I've certainly not seen a grille like that before.

Cheers Tony DC

Re: Marlins a la Frog!

The dashboard is made up of the original dials from a 1.8 tc marina. I have the same in mine.
