This great little contraption described as '1966 Mini Moke, old guy made' was seen for sale in Ontario, Canada by reader Miguel Plano, who kindly flashed it over. It may look like a Scamp, but I don't it is one as the construction looks slightly different with a simple body appears made from plywood and aluminium profiling. By an old guy. The seller goes on: "Not sure what to call it but it looks like a Moke. Great shriner car or clown car". Miguel added to that: "Looks like someone described it over the phone!". I thinks he's right. I do like it though. This is motoring simplicity in its finest form.
Not a Scamp but an 'Old guy made' one-off from Ontario, Canada

An ideal flatbed transporter? Or room for more seats? Simplicity is the key

Austin engine with relocated battery and even tank? The back must be ultra-light

Knobbly tyres at the front. Plywood body is just visible here

No frills but more wood inside. Was 'Old guy' a Canadian carpenter?
