SAMMIO ALPHA, This is a unique one of special build!!.
The SAMMIO ALPHA body conversion is originally designed to fit a Triumph Spitfire but is this case the same body has been retro fitted to a 1985 Reliant SS1 making this car an unique build.

As this is a body conversion the original registration details are retained.
