I picked it up in October last year, as soon as I got it I ripped the motor out and got it rebuilt and re-wired the car, aswell as did an S5 Turbo G/box conversion, which has all just been finished. That photo was taken when I just bought it, and still working on it in the garage. I\'ll take some pics again later out in the open when she\'s clean and shiny, and no it doesn\'t get driven that often, it\'s strictly a circuit car and usually only gets driven too and from the track and too major club events :)

It started with a 12A Twin Dizzy bridge, to 13B mildport, eventualyl with webber, then 13B bridgeport, then 13B Series 4 Turbo engine.

Ahh - them were the days.

Your car looks fantastic Glen!

I actually live in Adelaide, so I\'ve only been out too such places like Mallala and the Collingrove Hillclimb, but theres talk of our club going interstate for a bit of a bash so.. should be fun :)
