The Arkley was actually a well made kit and most of them turned out nice.
Wow, how that I Google Arkley kit, that's not half-bad looking. https://arkleyss.my-free.website/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arkley_(automobile)
In reply to keithedwards :
They were actually pretty popular back in the UK. When things started getting ratty/ratty/rusty but the mechanicals were still good, it was an easy(ish), cheap(ish) way to get a 'new' car. Also as it wasnt' really a kit car, more a serious body kit, the finish rate was far far higher than the average kit car. The mechanicals weren't touched.
