You say it' a Vauxhall 'based' Wyvern with a magnum engine?

Now the Vauxhall Wyvern was a completely different animal to the Viva range, large old tubs with American styling, with a huge 4 cyl engine and a 'Velox' which was a six cylinder version, and built in the late 50's, so unless some major construction work has gone on I can't see how a magnum engine would be fitted!!

Saw one recently at a show, and haven't seen one for ages before, but I'm sure they are around.

Some pics would be nice!

I expect this is a JC Wyvern, didn't someone else on here have one of those?

ETA - no, that was on a different forum: https://brm-forum.org/thread/415/jc-wyvern
