I have owend my hustler hell cat 4 for over 7yrs, it is a 1976 and a car that gets looks every where it goes,its the tube frame and fiberglass tub,This year it has had a make over by me and my 10yr old grandson,its classed as a 6 seater with new bucket seats in the front and leather in the rear,it also wears some nice decals.The 1275cc is very nippie the sound it makes is like music,its also the very best classic you could have for summer crusing,alot of people laugh but i think there only jellous!! Keep an eye open this year you just might see what THE DOGS BO***CKS looks like... as the man said hustler its not just a car,its a way of life.

My Wooden Bodied Hustler Hellcat Is A Fun Little M
My wooden bodied Hustler Hellcat is a fun little machine. It looks retro and gets loads of confused but good compliments.
It's good, but is quite noisy and the wooden body must be a fire hazard, so I always make sure I've got a fire extinguisher with me just in case. Also, I don't drive too far in a single journey just to make sure there's no risk of overheating.
Great, but mixed review....is the lack of long journeys more to the BMC / BL bits, rather than being made from wood. Been talking to a far eastern carpenter about it (Japan) ..... do you have the plans or any detail photos I could forward to him ? Regards Bob ([email protected])
looks like you are talking about a Hustler Wood! the Hustler Hellcat was made from 25mm square steel tube as a space frame with grp panels. it was an open/canvas top style car. there were over a dozen derivitives of the hustler including one based on a Jaguar.
I take it that your Hellcat is a no smoking zone then?

Hi, is the Hellcat still about? Have you it's reg number so I can add it to my spreadsheet of the 54 Hustlers I've identified so far? You can see this list on my still in creation mode site.
