This thing is so cool.  I'm tempted, but I don't know if I can talk my wife into it.  Here it is.

Dang, those are both really cool and really rare.

Jonny Smith did a Late Brake Show on YouTube on a barn find Riley. I guess they're pretty special cars.

The ones before they became badge engineered BMC cars are. Generally sporty cars with interesting engineering to boot.

Good news.  It's coming home with me this weekend.  It's a good running car, underpowered doesn't begin to describe it though.  The wiring is a mess, but I can deal with that.  Looking forward to going over it and making it fully roadworthy again.  I'll post pictures when I get it home.

It's a twin cam with the cams high in the block.  I have never seen anything like it before.
