The new TYPE 3 thread.......

ren · 2006-07-21T08:09:34+00:00

Ok I'm starting this thread so we can collect a nice album full of type 3's from around the world. More than anything, this can serve as inspiration to anyone building up a type 3 (like me!). This isn't a 'readers rides' type thing, but rather just the best from around the world.......I'll get it started........ [ Edited on 21-7-2006 by ren ] [ Edited on 21-7-2006 by ren ]

I was reading not long ago in Australian Muscle Car Magazine that the Bryan Thompson V8 Fastback (# 17 above) from the 70's was being searched for and come the following issue of the mag Bryan himself wrote into the editer with the final shot of the once o so quick fasty as it now rests in a paddock in NSW
As you might imagine there was not much Type 3 about it apart from the shape as it was mainly McLaren M10 B running gear that eventually end up back in a McLaren in NZ
