well it survived (stored outside) better than any of the cars it was meant to support.

I'll put it next to my hydrolastic/hydrogas suspension pump-up tool (brake pedal and master cylinder on a piece of wood).

My first car was an Aggro. I think the second Cryptoscope thing looks more comfortable, more reliable and probably faster too.

You can get some nice HiFi speakers from the same seller while you're at it BB, nice Queen Anne legs by the look of it:-

...from the same seller...

Ah, Dynatron. They used to make posh cabinets for tellys as well.

If I recall, the audio stuff was not deemed to be brilliant quality.

And I couldn't let an Allegro thread pass by without mentioning the square steering wheel, known as a Quartic.

I was watching the film In the Heat of the Night the other day, lots of 60s/70s Yank cars on there, including one with an electric folding roof, like my CC3.

There is a car chase and one of the pursuing vehicles clearly has an odd-shaped steering wheel.
