Elfin Streamliner

[Dalton Veitch]

Here is the local Elfin Streamliner at the "Wheels" event in Canberra, Australia. I think it's fugly, but it's all a matter of taste.

Interesting car Dalton - but you're right - it's all a matter of taste.. From what I can tell the Profile View of the car may have been it's saving grace..

Remember that there were a number of people working for Chrysler at one time that took one look at the body design of the K-Car and said "Wow... Now THAT is HOT!!!!"...

I suppose the same would be true of the Fiat 128 and Datsun 510...

Owned by an aquaintance, this car has a few quirks.

After a few hot laps at Wakefield, the steering went all funny. The owner had little luck getting any sense out of Elfin, until he started cutting up rough and talking legals. Turns out the steering rack is from an MGB. Another funny is that the steering column has to be removed to replace the fan belt.

But it goes very well.
