    Paul- what ever happened to your old De Joux ?
    It has been a long time since I have ever seen one.
    I had an orange one with a 1100 back in 1974/75 its on this thread-#155.
    They were a really neat shape, very light and my wife loved driving it.
    A friend Alex Isbey had one, it was Colin Broadleys old one- he was a radio DJ back in 60s/70s and he rolled it off the northwestern motorway. You may remember Alex in a Mini Cooper from the old Hill Climb days early 70s, very quick he was.
    He built a Mini with a 1500 Maxi with 5 speed in, rolled it in a rally. He was part of the way putting this motor and subframe in this damaged De Joux and go racing again with it.
    Last saw it at his house in 1976, sadly he is no longer with us, but what happened to this car?
