No seatbelts either, apparently! Not that they would improve safety much.

On a car with no roof structure it's best to be thrown free to safety.

Seatbelts would probably improve driving experience if you ever pull any Gs, but I assume that thing will only ever be driven on the lawn of a Concours D'Elegance

You shared it with a dick.

I'm gonna hard disagree about the seatbelts. In a major collision sure it may be pointless but a majority of collisions are minor. You T-bone someone at 30 mph and that steering column punching you in the chest is what stops you from moving forward? gently caress that.

My only complaint is purely aesthetic and it would look perfect if the stripe design wrapped over the car without stopping on panels.

The QH50C is the variant that came with the Boeing T50 turbine. The QH50A and B came with Porsche engines.

I really appreciate the Citroen "corrugated" look from the vans applied to the horizontal surfaces on this, never mind it's a freaking 2CV monoposto...

Ah, yeah, that's clearly not a Rover V8 - rocker covers on those are horizontal, and only 4-bolts.
That and it says "Jensen" on it...

It's pretty good. Points for: Nice work with the body lines around the top of the tray, clean and smooth. Good rear window and very smooth b-pillar to rear window work. Super clean all over. Against: Could use a tad more length in the cabin for better proportions/cabin space, chequer plate sucks and no working tailgate. But I get why.
