Recently discovered this company is actually called 'George Fowell' and they also made the famous ! Gitane GT sports car. -- Last edit: 2010-06-28 14:19:25 |

In expectation of a rush of George Fowell dumpers and Gitane GT sports cars can we change make to George Fowell. http://www.historywebsite.co.uk/Museum/Transport/commercial/GF.htm -- Last edit: 2017-10-12 12:42:31 |

I've got a book reference that only one Gitane was built. Initially with a body rather like the similarly mid-engined later Mini GTM and registered 232 HWD, then restyled as your link in a vaguely Alpine-Renault A108 shape, and disappeared about 1968. Giannini plans were apparently genuine but came to nowt. George Fowell later invented a jogging machine, which made him a fortune. |

Good job George did not have to depend on Gitane GT sales -- Last edit: 2017-10-13 08:01:32 |
