Hey, they set the bar high for themselves, now they have to keep this high quality up, right? It’s not the one car that wins the challenge, it’s the consistency of your design language, kept alive!
This thing looks badass, my katana would get absolutely smoked by this thing at a red light
Well it does make over double the power LMAO.
1969 HAMFA 3200 CH
The best way to drive from Gernau to Karlstad am Strand!
Cruise the Hetvesian high ways or above else the long spectacular coastal road in style and comfort and with power and speed on tap when needed or wanted.
In 1967 Hetvesia carmaker HAMFA presented the new and modernised 3200 CH, based on their legendary 3000 Cuopé.
The new car are both lighter and a little shorter then the predecessor but with the same interior space.
The most significant change is the new Engine, an all aluminium V6 instead of the straight six in the earlier car.

I would not like to be bundled up in the back of a black one of these…
Badger (n) - A small, vicious animal that never backs down against any threat. See also: bold, fearless.
ACZ is proud to present the Badger for the 1966 model year! An all new purpose built muscle car for the global market, the Badger is ready to rumble with the best!
History
Upon the success of the ‘64 Grand Deluxe, ACZ developed a new 7L V8 for the full size sedan. Dubbed the Sleuth, the 7L behemoth could do 0-60 in just over 8 seconds and hit a top speed of 157 MPH. The automotive world was captivated by its size and quality, but most importantly, the Sleuth’s performance proved practical didn’t have to be boring. However, the large size deterred many buyers from the impressive sedan, and with the rise of muscle cars and other two door coupes from competitors, work began to create something more “purebred”.
The Badger
Chassis
Starting development in 1965, the Badger began on a Grand deluxe chassis, but sheds over a foot from the original machine. The double wishbone suspension remained as a sleek, yet muscular coupe body was formed over the shorter ladder chassis. Don’t think this means the Badger is basic, it is the first ACZ to feature radial tires as standard. The result is exceptional cornering performance while maintaining the toughness ACZ built its legacy on.
Drivetrain
Body
The body was developed in house by ACZ, sharing many cues from the Grand Deluxe it descended from. The familiar split grill and inlay headlights still grace the car, but were adjusted to accommodate the sleek new coupe body. The result is an ACZ that still looks the part, but more handsome than its brothers.
Performance
Interior
Affordability
Of course, we targeted this car at the masses at ACZ, so the super car-like performance comes at a fraction of the cost. Dollar per horsepower, there’s no other car on the market that can out punch the Badger. We’ve kept the vehicle simple too, so you aren’t slapped with house sized repair bills at each service, assuming you need to take it in at all.
Closing Remarks
The Badger sets a new bar in motoring with its simple design and outstanding performance. Speed and power have never been this obtainable. While the Grand Deluxe Sleuth shook up the performance market in late '64, the Badger will be the gold standard for years to come.

This is the Iskara Fliegenkäse. Entering production in 1968 the Fliegenkäse saw limited success due to its engines tendency to overheat. although if one could look past this it was a perfectly fine car and those who did buy it often fitted it with an aftermarket cooling system. It had a 4 litre mid mounted V8 producing 350 horsepower. It futuristic wedge shape unfortunately gave the designers to make things unnecessarily complicated with things like pop up headlights, recessed door handles and the enormous rear window that had to be removed to service the engine. It could go from 0-100kph in just 5.6 seconds and had a top speed of 283kph. It was stated to be a joy to drive and a pain to maintain.

Hello everyone here!
Being new to this platform and just having submitted my first challenge in
the last week (QFC53), it is now time to dive into another!
So I will give it a shot!
I am not here to win, but to gain knowledge, skills and some friendly competition.
I wish everyone good luck and lots of fun 
Here a sneak peek to my WIP '69 light sports car!
LORE BILLYSPORT 750 LSi:
Because Billy came from a family of racers,
he always had a big passion for engineering and trackdays.
As a young adult, late '68 he came across an opportunity to start a small car factory.
With some help of his family they decided to make sports cars with
the emphasis on light weight, nimble, high revving cars for the track,
but also roadworthy.
And so, BillySport Motors was born.
After making all the plans for their first car, they set up the factory.
The first car was ready for production, and thus in 1969 the 2 seater coupe “BILLYSPORT 750 LSi” became available for the public.
With a one of a kind sporty styling and a daring concept for an engine and layout.
It was equipped with a small rear mounted fuel injected 1600cc OHC24 NA V6.
Revving up to 7900rpm and putting out 105hp and 131Nm of torque to the rear tires,
making it possible to go from 0 to 100km/h in only 7.1 seconds.
For cooling it had some clever vents and scoops to get the engine
the airflow it needed to perform.
The superb handling in this light trackmonster was accomplished by double wishbone suspension front and rear.
The total car weighed in at only 750kg hence it’s name.
A clutched limited-slip differential helped overcome wheelspin for smooth acceleration.
The “750 LSi” was an instant hit,
because of its raw simplicity, handling and performance.

Round 2: The crisis of 80s… (rule deliberation, OG post updated)
The emission regulations was a big part of 80s, well mainly for the western nations. None the less, they had the biggest market! This was also the times were the cars had the most iconic design feature of their brands! So the challenge is mostly focused on the design, giving you more freedom in the technology advancements!
Rules of the 80s:
-
Engines must meet WES 7 emission standard.
-
Body Models are coupes, permitted from 1977- 1992 (3 years grace for body choices)
-
Rules don’t disqualify, they reduce points, if your decision has a good lore/justification, you wont lose any points, but it will make it harder for you to gain points, so keep that in mind.
-
Family names start with (ALL) - Forum name
-
Tech pool max on +7
-
Designs must carry the Identity of the car before them. To elaborate, it must be directed at the original car market it was made for, and have followed design ques from previous model. This does not mean a direct copy, but the two must have features that feel directly inspired by the previous model.
-
There is required for a lore/story/ad with the post.
80’s focus points
- Design /15
- Identity kept /10
- Story/Idea /10 (+3 if it includes a challenge that was brought up during 70’s and 80’s, a curve ball if you will)
- Interior design /3 (1 point for just having a dash and seats)

None of the 80s bodies actually look like they are from the 80s.
Yes that is an exceptionally good point. There are a ton of bodies, especially the 1969 Mobula that work ridiculously well as 1980s cars, to an extemt where most 80s coupes are built on at least one form of that body.
