Look what I saw in a public parking lot.
This is a Lynx kit car that is very similar to a Morgan +4 car.
The Morgan cars have an interesting history, and I had a look at some of their original cars. I think that this Lynx was based on one of the 1960s models.
Main article: Morgan +4
The Morgan +4 was introduced in 1950 as a larger-engined ("plus") car than the 4/4. The +4 initially used the 2,088 cc (127.4 cu in) Standard Vanguard engine and at introduction sold for £625 (two-seater) or £723 (coupé).
The +4 used Triumph TR2 (in 1953),[39] TR3 (1956),[39] or TR4A engines (until 1969). Plus 4 production was suspended in 1969 but brought back in 1985 with a Fiat engine (1985–1988) and then a 4-cylinder Rover engine (1988–2000). Production was again suspended and the Plus 4 returned once more in 2004 with a 155 bhp (116 kW; 157 PS) Ford 4-cylinder.
From October 1965 to April 1967 Morgan produced the two-seat +4 Competition, of which only 42 were built, about 11 of which survive.
Although I like to see all of the old cars here driving around in the roads, the Lynx is one of my favorites, as they remind me of the caracal cats. I had some experiences with a live caracal during my childhood on a farm. They have very strong back legs that enable them to jump very high and I saw a caracal jumping up to take a bird out of a tree. They are great hunters and very rare these days.
So, the car has a great look, and I am sure that the owner has much fun driving around with it, especially on a hot day with the top down. We have some classic car clubs here, and a good friend of mine restores many old cars that are brought to him. I have posted some of his cars in the past. Whenever I see an old car on the road, I post photos of it, as I am fascinated by these cars and their stories.
Such is life.
I hope you enjoyed the pictures and the story.

Glad that I could show you the car!
I absolutely love Morgan cars and they still manufacture them, to order that is. I can only dream. lol.
Great photos. Can’t beat a car event.
Thank you, and yes, we will love to own a Morgan, but like you we can also only dream. !LOL
Wow I love to see these types of car, even though they don't have any features but still they took the eyes away. Lovely car
They are very basic cars with no fandangles and whistles, and it must be a pleasure to drive one.

The appearance of the car is really cool, even though it was made in the 1960s, it looks really cool ❤️
