Auto Speciali & Vindicator Cars – Joint Announcement
John Butler of Vindicator Cars has been appointed as sales and managing agent for Auto Speciali. His role is to promote the company, liaising with new and existing clients.
John is looking forward to the challenge of marketing the Auto Speciali vehicles, The Veleno supercar, The Venom muscle car and of course the AS 427, alongside the existing range of Vindicator Cars.
The Auto Speciali website,
www.autospeciali.co.uk, is to be updated in due course.
Other 'Services' available:
In addition to our regular models, please see the services page for news of our abilities with builds of other manufacturers’ kits, restorations and prototype design work – from a hinge to a completely new model.
SPRINT Mk3
A vaguely sevenesque sports car featuring -
race bred handling, wide tunnel & interior with comfortable mid-seating;
tank in front of rear axle and practical lockable boot space; engine behind front wheel centre line.
This is therefore not a ‘7 look alike’ as all the major components are
spread evenly within the length of the wheelbase and the weight of the
occupants is based around the middle of the car.
For more luggage space, the XL option gives an extra 5” boot length.
Excellent value for money; revolutionary multi-media CD Rom build
manual, featuring text: stills and videos.
SPRINT Mk4
Panel upgrade for new Sprints.
Can also be available as an update
for an existing Sprint.
Features include a more curved bonnet and a new front cycle wing
design that's wider and has angled ends to flow with the lines of the
new bonnet.
Other options include a rear pedestal spoiler (that can
also be fitted to a Mk3) and front splitters.
For more luggage space, the XL option gives an extra 5" boot length.
SPRINT XL (extended boot)
Illustrated on Mk4 Sprint with Mk3 in the background.
The XL boot is also available with Mk3 bodywork.
Further options include rear pedestal spoiler and (for the Mk4 only) front splitter pack.
SPRINT FAMILY
Always wanted a sports car but really need 4 seats?
Because our seats are already in the middle of the car, we've only had to increase the wheelbase by 12” to include a spacious second row of seats.
By using the XL rear framework (but with a standard boot lid) the resultant lockable boot space becomes larger than a standard 2 seater Sprint.
SHADOW
Distinctive sports tourer [rear spoiler optional]
With internal storage shelf, or roll bar space, behind the seats.
Large lockable boot.
Available with full flip front or with a traditional bonnet.
VULCAN
Two seater sports car -
unique design with full flip front for easy engine bay access;
similar chassis layout to the Sprint, but with even more spacious interior; large lockable boot.
[full screen or aeroscreen options]
REDFERN VANTAGE (ALIAS 'THE VANDICATOR')
Van, Pick-up, Custom hot rod?
A recent addition at Vindiworld is the Redfern Vantage (now also known as “The Vandicator”!). This is a multi-purpose vehicle in the style of the early 1900’s C Cab - so named because of the curved window behind each door, for better visibility and manoeuvrability in traffic.
We have already had a few enquiries about this versatile and practical vehicle from a number of businesses.
The original Redfern Vantage (pictured) was built as a delivery van / mobile workshop and features horizontally-split rear half doors.
The top section is longer to provide shelter whilst loading/unloading.
The lower section folds down to extend the flatbed for carrying, or (with adjustable fold-out legs) to provide a work bench.
In addition to the early 1900s C Cab replica van, this vehicle could be available with a wider body or as a pick-up/open flatbed with optional frame and cover. It can also be made available with extra side windows and more than two seats.
Fitting chrome wheels to the demonstrator has illustrated the possibilities for “wild ‘n’ wacky” custom/hot rod developments (perhaps with wider arches!).
We look forward to more enquiries for utilizing either Ford or BMW donor gear in a variety of formats from a complete vehicle to self-build modules, plus mid-range options (e.g. a rolling shell for you to finish).
Although cost depends very much on individual specification, our aim as always, is to supply a quality product that can meet a wide range of uses, but on a sensible budget. Whichever format you need, there is plenty of body panel space for advertising your business, or for adding artwork/custom graphics.
Whether you’re looking for a workhorse, a practical multi-purpose vehicle (possibly with more than two seats), or the base for a custom hot rod, why not call us.
As John says, “what’s the limit of your imagination?”
