<<< 1750cc Mini


X - 2000

Saline Warrior >>>


This car was designed by Alex Trimulous as a styling exercise for the Ford Motor Company in 1958. It was never built full size until Andy decided to build this.

It is handbuilt in steel, based on the floor pan of a 1962 Mercury. 7'8" wide and regularly road used.

One prestigious American magazine titled a feature on it as "Restoration of a car that never was."

The X - 2000 is still in Andy's ownership, and regularly appears in TV commercials. It is often seen globe trotting to different exotic locations, including being exported to Australia in 2000 to promote the Melbourne Millennium International Motor Show.

After recently returning from a show in Korea, the X-2000 has since been on show at the Goodwood Festival of Speed 2004, as part of the Cartier Concours De Elegance ' Cars of the Future' display.
