I also had a Rapier convertible which died when the conrod exited through the cylinder block.
Then a 1964 Minx which got tuned a little with 60 thou off the head and a rebore and powermax pistons so it would cruise along easy at 85 mph. That one died when it hit a 9 inch brick wall.
All of them were very rusty although only just over 10 years old .
Rapier was nice with 1600cc engine, twin carbs and alloy rocker cover and could get to 100 mph but also only did 24 mpg. I paid 75 pounds for it back in 1972
