The record

The Wildcat 100 replaced the box-section Tomcat 100 with a tubular chassis of the same wheelbase and kept its body style. Tomcat Motorsport supported its production after Drew Bowler moved on to the Wildcat 200.

Research status: draft — identification, dates or figures could not all be pinned down; the summary says what is unresolved.

AI rendering impression

An AI rendering impression starts from a 3D model of this vehicle, which an image model then paints into a scene. It is an artist's impression of the type, made to give a feel for the vehicle in its element — not a photograph, and not a record of any particular vehicle.

Proportions, fittings, markings, colours and the setting can all drift from the original in the process. For the vehicle's actual details, rely on the specification, the photographs and the cited sources on this page.
