Probe 16
The M-505 Adams Brothers Probe 16 was a car, designed by former Marcos cars designers Dennis and Peter Adams, (Bradford on Avon, Wiltshire England) in 1969 as 'an investigation into extremes of styling'. It was powered by a mid-mounted tuned Austin 1800 engine and stood a mere 34 inches (86 cm) in height. A total of only 3 were built, all 3 survived and are currently located in the UK, USA and Canada.[1]
Stanley Kubrick featured a Probe 16 in his 1971 film, A Clockwork Orange. In the film, it is referred to as Durango 95.[2] In the TV-programme Top Gear (Season 2004, 2nd episode, aired October 31, 2004), the one used in the film was nominated for restoration in the Restoration Rip-off feature.
