SOLVED: Djetset #526 - Blow Your Top Ford Fiesta Convertible

[Djetset]

To be awarded a point I need the full make and model name of this car please.

I was thinking it might be a Ford Escort Cabriolet convertible, but the pictures I've found don't seem to match that front end...lol.

Ugh.

Sorry KF, but it's not a Ford Escort Cabriolet.

[Djetset]

Up to the next level...

[del78]

for sure it is Fiesta Convertible of some sort

[D-type]

Crayford Ford Fiesta ?

[Djetset]

It sure is a Ford Fiesta, but not a Crayford conversion.

Home brew conversion?

[studhamsmudger]

Hacker?

[Djetset]

Not a home brew conversion, but Hacker is very close, although it is not a Hacker.  Locked to S'smudger for the next 24 hours.

[studhamsmudger]

Novus?

[Djetset]

I can see why you've said that, but you are getting colder, so stick with the Hacker connection 

[studhamsmudger]

Dutton?

[Djetset]

Still very close, but not a Dutton.

[Delorean]

Bieber?

[Djetset]

Not Bieber.

[Djetset]

Up a level...

D Jakes?

[woodinsight]

Scorhill?

[Djetset]

Ha Ha! Not Scorhill!  Not D Jakes either.

[del78]

Cleveland?

[woodinsight]

The strangely (appropriately?) named Blow Your Top c.1994?

[Djetset]

Blow Your Top.  Sorry Woodinsight, I thought that was a statement of intent!  It is also the correct answer, so well done, and another point to you.

Blow Your Top was one of a myriad of car companies set-up by prolific British kit car manufacturer Tim Dutton.  The company also offerfed a Metro and Vauxhall Nove-based convertible conversion kit, in addition to the Fiesta.
