Some
of the cars created or recreated
by AMW:
It grew out of my first race car, a Lola 340.
New frame and suspension and the body is a sectioned Lola 340 piece.
I was able to win a race in this car.
This photo was taken at Shannonville in 1981.
The first frame - 1981
Then for 1982 we made a new
body for the car ...
... and then it was written off at Mosport in 1982.
1983 Adler Super Vee
1985 Adler F2000
1987 Adler F2000... and then it was written off at Mosport in 1982.

We built these two interesting cars for Jack Boxstrom in 1990/91.
1960 Sadler Mk 5 1960 Lotus 19
Lotus 19 ... 2.5 litre Coventry Climax ... with the infamous Lotus queerbox.
A typical
Lotus space frame from
late 50's to early 60's ... in this case the Lotus 19. This car was completed around 1987 for John, who is a great passionate man and racer.
Thank you John

Lotus 19 ... 2.5 litre Coventry Climax ... with the infamous Lotus queerbox.
This was essentially a new chassis as the old one was beyond repair.
We were able to salvage some bits ... to keep it's spirit alive.

Decobra for Len Dewolf
This car was our own design under
the skin
with a Cobra body made up of
fibreglass main shell with aluminum doors, bonnet and boot.
Note the fully triangulated backbone chassis ...
which gives immense rigidity for secure handling and a solid well built feel.
Completed 1993 for Len DeWolf who was an remarkable man to work with.
He put 36,000 miles on this car in the first year of ownership.
Thank you Len

This is an original spec aluminum
skinned Cobra ... ... it was completed 1996.
Good fit
As you can probably see, this frame had a high degree of tubular silliness to fabricate.
Metal Art
A labour of love is what making an aluminum body represents.

A car we
named Henry ... passionately longed for by a
generous man.
He has given it a very good home.
Here are some pictures of Henry taken in 2006 ... 10 years later.
And Henry in 2017 posing with his new brother Alfie.
Still shiny after all these years.
