This site describes the construction of a home built, mid-engined car. First conceived in 1999 and inspired by cars such as the NCF Blitz and Onyx Tomcat. I finally began work this year(2005) with a friend, who is an Aircraft Engineer. Why Mistrale? Well, the author of 'A Year in Provence', described the Mistral as a "brutal, exhausting wind that can blow the ears off a donkey" - appropriate for a car with no roof, sides or windscreen. An 'e' was added as others have already used 'Mistral'

Small update
Just a quick update to let anyone who reads this know that I am still here! Another trip 'abroad' and a new puppy have limited progress recently but with today being a wet, miserable sunday, I managed an hour or so of work, mainly cutting out the rear bulkhead. It needs little trimming to fit, but typically I now need a new large cutting disk to finish it off!!! More soon I hope!
