Hi guys,
I am looking for a car I had not heard of before, the 50s sports racer Sadler. I believe it's an American special. Could anyone provide me with a decent website on this car, or pictures?

Yes, I am aware of that, but I want some adequate information, not the overwhelming bunch of sites related to "Sadler" (NASCAR driver) or "sports car".

From the SADLER pottery works in Stoke on Trent, England.
Meets all your creiterai, but I'm guessing STILL NOT the one you want :)

Sorry avout that, my sense of humour sometimes gets the better of me.
Hope this makes up for it :)
A Sadler Mk2, the Mk3 was the more successful but sadly I couldnt' find any images at any of my normal sites.

But maybe this article will help too, found link to this from the historical motorsports association site .... http://www.theglobeandmail.com/globemegawheels/20000831/sadler.html // an interview with the man himself. He's noww in Arizona, so that might help you focus some google searching.

Woah, has a 250 TR feel to it. Was this an actual company producing their own parts or is it like a kit car? The body doesnt seem to fit the rest of the car.

"cutting-edge race cars, many of them built from salvaged materials and parts due to a shortage of funds" If you look on the Hemmings Motor News website you will also come across a Sadler, without wire wheels though.
