The latest of my children a '69 baby has just kicked into life and is now heading north to one of the members from Brisbane. Keep an eye out guys for one of the neatest rides I have ever built. With a build cost well in excess of 30k and built up of every ultra rare part I could get my hands on she looks every part the pedigree. Congrats sg enjoy, I know she went to a good home.

Dont stress Steve. You know what I am like. It is running ok but picking up an ega tomorrow from a friend. I think the RHS carby is running lean and piston lifts too early but only later in the rev range after glass spark plug has done its job. Ega should help me see WTF is going on. Took her for a bit of a run around the carpark. Sweeeeeet. Rides like a bought one. G. PS Geez a guy could get a swollen ego round here. Cheers for the comments, good to see the cars are appreciated. Duc I dont want to sound like a snob but I will post pics of the black beast when she is finished. Seeing something half done isnt quite the same. You were close though. Black with pearl gold ghost checkers that can only be seen in direct sunlight across the bonnet and front guards, full custom recaro interior in cream leather, custom 10.5 inch brakes, blown S motor with custom stainless bug catcher, custom 13x7.5 wheels, sport pack arches, cage, harnesses, but sorry to disappoint it only makes 204hp. Have a tuner on the Gold Coast who is keen to fit my new 50hp NOS kit for me, but will have to wait a while to see if it holds together. Got a few other tricks up my sleeve too. WIll keep you posted. G
