At my age, it would take a week to get the old body into the thing then a month to get out again!

OK, we can stop searching.
The old bloke found some papers he had with the original purchase.
Its actually a UK kit called an Embeesea Charger.
The bloke wants 10k for it, but he not sure if all the bits are there for it.
To paraphrase Mr Keaton, tell him he's dreaming.".

I know there will be some people out there with good memories (or at least better than mine), who are interested in cars as more than a means of getting from a to B.
Just recently, I met up with an elderly gentlemen from the boondocks who showed me a fibreglass car he had in his shed.
He told me it was one of the many kit cars that were supplied in OZ, wherby the floor plan, engine and mechanicals were from a VW beetle, with the sleek whizz bang fibreglass shells bolted to the chassis.
The Purvis Eureka was probably the most popular, but there were others .
This one had gull wing doors, recessed pop up headlights and looked very much like an 80's era Lotus Elan or Elite.
He reckons there were only ever two in existence, but after hours of searching the web, cannot find any info about it.
Any one out there got something stirring in the brain cells??
