Something out of Gerry Anderson's "UFO"?

Root beer. FEH. Tastes like cold foamy mouthwash - if you're lucky.

Yup. Strakers car from UFO

Two were built, the other was slightly modified to look different for Paul Foster. I love the color of this, but prefer the style of the Straker car.

The cars were built by Alan Mann racing who also built GT40's. They were built of English Ford Zypher chassis and were dog slow and hard to drive. One has been found and being recreated.

Alan Mann built those? I never knew that.

I did discover Dinky make toys..never knew that either.

1980 was going to be so marvelous, wasn't it? Except for the UFO invasion n' all..

EDIT: Hey, look what I found!!

In reply to Ranger50:

Stone, Woods, & Cook? Isn't that Mike Cook's LSR T-Bird?

In reply to Appleseed:

Correct on all counts except there are two of the SW&C cars plus the LSR ride in that picture.
