(19-03-2018, 11:19 PM)DavidL. I used to race that Fiat/Austin when it had an Austin 7 engine in.  New owner Campbell fitted the 1100cc Fiat unit and transferred the drive sideways under his knees with chains and sprockets enclosed in home-made casings.  It then became competitive.

On the old forum I can remember a special build with what I think was a honda V twin...think he took it to the Shakespeare Raceway...

I used to see this one at Wiscombe Park, FIAT: https://www.pinterest.co.uk/pin/148407750205335201/   Did /does it have a chain drive from the back of the gearbox to the front of the offset axle?
