Longchamp 1000-series

Why don't you ask Mr Tjaarda what happened to it? When you click on the link button in this sites main page you can click his website and send him an e-mail. I hope that it still works.
As with most prototypes it probably wasn't ment to last and ended up being scrapped, but who knows?

Because I´m afraid.. I thought, that I´d learn as much as possible before bothering Mr. Tjaarda with my incoherent rambligs, but you´re probably right.

Roland,

I thought that the Turin show prototype was the only one? Or maybe I´m wrong to refer to it as a 1000-series? It had a completely different kind of bumpers and air dam than any Longchamps that I´ve ever seen. Also slight differences in the front fenders, interior(placement of the heater controls, switches and radio),and vent trims were chromo and more delicate.

The only picture I could find in the net is at http://www.tom-tjaarda.net/cars.htm

I have more pictures of it from different sources, but probably the most common one is the Wallace A Wyss De Tomaso automobiles pages 152 and 153.

Well, I was in contact with Mr. Tjaarda and recieved some information and pictures about the prototype. Unfortunenately he wasn´t able help me with the colour of the car, and as I haven´t been able to find any colour pictures of the car any help from the board members would be greatly appriciated.
