The Jetstream

Yes, I know there is no excuse to make a car this ugly!

But, anybody know what happened to the Jetstream project, or who ran it?

I think if they widened the nose so it didn't look like a duckbill wedged between the wheels (making it look more normal car than 7-ish) that'd be alright

I think setting it alight would improve its looks

It looks like a prototype for the Sylva Mojo.





yours, Pete

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

This thing was going to be built in Redruth, Cornwall, not too far away from me, my old college tutor, Bob lord was deeply involved. A similar question was asked over 12 months ago, so I drove down to the factory and had a look, the factory was abandoned, and there were several jigs rusting in the back car park, I know it was ugly, but a shame another kit was still born.





If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

There is an awful lot of money thrown away down here by the RDA and the Council, mostly on useless things!!! Those with good ideas never get a look in...Go to Truro sometime and have a look at the statue just chucked up, it's a naked bloke with a drum and well endowed, it's supposed to symbolise "Cornwall"...the only thing it says is "waste of a 100 grand!! " but there are a few "big cocks" down here so I guess it's for them....

Eye of the Bee-Holder??

Those of you who think it looks so ugly - have another look at those front wheel covers (wings?). They look OK to me.





Work-in-Progress: Changed to Zetec + T9. Still trying!!
