History
This vehicle was initially built in 4 months by Brenton for his sons’ primary school Graduation. The vehicle was then driven in Satin Black for a few years before it was stripped for a "repaint". After a 14-year father/son rebuild, this is the end result. It was debut at the Adelaide Auto Expo in 2021. The car is now street driven after finishing its show days and can regularly be seen on the streets of Adelaide.
