History
Car is currently going through a respray in House of Colour tangello, and had the motor retuned to twin throttle boddy direct port injection.
Bought a wrecked shell that was going to the crusher, put new chassis rails and firewall forward panels. Had the car fully engineered to have a big block chev fitted into it, was the first leagally registered one in 1989 in Canberra and we think Australia at the time, owned it ever since.
