The Eclat Riveria

Pretty rare car this. It has the lift out roof that makes it a riviera, but oddly it has a standard eclat bonnet and boot lid. Not sure whats going on there - maybe they ran out of the special parts. This was something of a bargain. I kind of bought it as scrap, but a couple of hours on the Sun and its running like a beaut. Has major electrical jobs and needs a new exhaust. Nothing I cant handle. Its a bit rough around the edges, but I might use it for a bit. It has no A/C or P/S so it should be the fastest of all the eclats.

[update] I now have a nice stainless exhaust, just wait for its turn on the lift.
