Quest/Commander Straker’s Car, 1980 (1969) from the 70s TV series UFO. Appearing initially in the Gerry and Sylvia Anderson produced 1969 Sci-Fi film Doppelgänger, it was then utilised in the UFO TV series which was set in 1980. The car was designed by Len Bailey and built by the Alan Mann Racing Company based on a Ford Zephyr Mk 4 chassis with a hand beaten aluminium body. There was a project by the Explorer Motor Company to produce the car, which was to be called the Quest, in limited numbers. However the venture never achieved the required orders and only one additional car was ever made (from fibreglass).
