I expect it's lighter then when it had a Triumph six in it. As for the bumper, I 'll have to have an eyeball at that !!

I rather like the Spartans and that one looks like a very nice example. I'm not sure if the bumper is quite straight on that though, who welded that? I might be tempted to remove it altogether. I think that the aluminium castings for the screen and the roll bar make an interesting statement about the commitment of the makers to their design, unlike Dutton who it appears couldn't be bothered to make a jig for their chassis.

What I would like to know is how heavy is it with a 2 litre Pinto. I can't see that it would be as light as a normal Dutton (which I reckon would be about 630kg) but it might be similar to a Legerra (which I reckon is 800Kg).

Not what you would call a looker.......Spartans never really did it for me.
