Interior view of a 1967 Bond Equipe 6 GT Coupé 2+2.
Screenshot taken from the Classic Car Auctions site. The interior was heavily affected by smoke and soot. Probably it will take a long time before the burning smell will disappear.
Original photographer and date unknown.
The Bond Cars company started to produce cars in 1949 with a simple 3-wheel small car. In 1963 a 4-wheel GT was added. The first model was the four cylinder Equipe 4 GT with a fibre glass body. It was built on a Triumph Herald platform.
The 6 cylinder Equipe 6 received a renewed body with Triumph Vitesse technics and platform.
Bond was taken over by Reliant in Februari 1969.
Private import.
