It says 'Sereph' on the paper in the windscreen. Does he mean 'Seraph'? I can't find either as a kit car on Google though.

A friend told me: The Seraph was Capri based with a purpose built backbone chassis to take Capri and other bits. However, the body used to be called the Bonito, which was an out and out beetle kit. The Bonito was around 1982 and the Seraph about 1986 so I suppose Seraph bought the mould.
And I found on Pistonheads forum: ...think the British Excalibur (as opposed to American one which was 1930's Merc SSK lookalike) was developed from the Seraph, which was I think developed from Beetle based kit with GT40-ish looks. Excalibur had basic twin rail ladder frame chassis and used Cortina parts though think racing version had Rover V8.

The Bonito was made by Fiberfab and called the FT Bonito.
There are some Bonito pics here: www.bonito-ft.com/Links.htm

But this site: www.btinternet.com/~Darryl.Webb/Kitcars/Futur e/Future.htm calls them Excalibur Crusaders? And this site: www.excaliburcrusader.com/ shows one that has many similarities of appearance.
