Ranger Cub

My 1978 Ranger Cub kitcar

This is a three-wheeler kitcar built in 1978, it has a front subframe from a Mini and a single trailing rear wheel, connected by a very simple chassis It is believed that only 18 cars were built, and only 6 survive in the UK. This may be one of only two that are still registered and in use on the UK roads.
