History
Found in a chook shed at Humula, NSW. When I brought it home to Wagga I thought my wife was going to leave. The car was rebuilt from the ground up over 9 years. Now my wife loves it. It's registered as a "daily driver" and is very economical to run. Power to weight ratio is perfect and is extremely well balanced to drive.
