Moke was built up in 86 / 87. ( Was originally a 1275, rear-tanked Californian). Full Cooper 'S' running gear, 45 DCOE Weber, 649 cam, high-lift rockers etc. adjustable suspension, 10" x 6" steel wheels with slicks. Alloy cage, Light weight subframes and shell (510kg all up). Nick-named the 'Flying Tile' because it wasn't quite a 'Brick'. Vic Hillclimb Championship class champion in 1988, couple of class records as well if I recall correctly. Went like the clappers up to about 80mph, but after that the lack of aerodynamics hindered it's progress.
Car was sold in 1989.

Hey they sold those things here before the world discovered 13s would fit... When I was a kid (OK, `twas eons ago) we used to `water ski' (using surfboard) with a mighty 998 one...

J then again, you also have this .... 10" a slightly different take on the moke, but i believe it was 4WD .... The Austin Ant...

Mokes on 10's are the best. Especially on WIDE 10's and lowered substansially to suit. This is cool too

Couldn't agree more, my 10" wheeled Moke was unreal Even managed to get it log-booked as an 'Open Sports Car' with CAMS - that's why it has doors

Took me a month to find these pictures...... they were the ones I wanted to show in my previous post... Moke on WIDE-ASS 10 inch wheels. Those Germans know how go give a car sex appeal..... And a 2 litre twin cam under the bonnet.... with about 150hp to fry those little 10's with

That's gotta be one of those Vectra 2.0 or 2.2 litre engines. Curly: in the first picture of the moke storming up the hill, is that sand on the track, or smoke coming from the front tyres?
