Wizard Roadsters , previously Wizard of Rods , was a British manufacturer of automobiles.[1]
Company History[edit]
Pete Cheeseman founded Wizard of Rods in 1987 in Slough, Berkshire where he began producing automobiles and kits. The brand name was Wizard. In 1994 the name was changed to Wizard Roadsters. Production ended in 1998. A total of about 265 cars were made.[2]
Vehicles[edit]
In 1987, Wizard of Rods took over production of the Rodshop Super Coupe and continued production under its own brand name. The vehicle resembled a 1940s Willys coupe. The basis was the chassis of the VW Beetle.
In addition, conversions of the VW Beetle were created. The Beetle Saloon received an oval rear window and a modified front. The roadster was lowered. The windjammer became a convertible with a roll bar. The Delivery Van was a panel van.
