I heard that it's owned/ sponsored/something by a large VW parts supplier on the northside of Brisbane...


Be nice to see it show up at Dyno Mania!!!!

Yep thats the one. And yes it is at a Dub parts supply shop in north brisvegas.

Let's hope to see it on the track not just stored in a shed like a few others around the traps.....

Yeah, I spotted it there the other week. But I also spotted another car there that was almost identical to it too. 🙁
Team setup maybe?

Stanley ·

will it be running the same engine....turbo?

PartyHatCentral ·

That car looks strangely like this one...


Although, I would love to know more about the identical second 'team' car?!?...? :duh

David and keith Greiner's '67.

David ran a 2442cc turbo engine out of his shop Proformance in cal.

car was for sale for under 10G on samba some time ago.
Bargain!

Anybody shed some light on what this car is going to do?? I drove past Mick motors last week and saw it sitting inside the doorway covered in about an inch of dust and dirt surrounded by boxes and all sorts of stuff.

Will it ever hit the track?? Info anybody?? Seems a shame to see something like this car sit and not be used for it purpose. Be great advertising also for Mick Motors if it raced or was taken to events too.....

matberry ·

Early Feb, Rowan [?} that works behind the counter said he would be driving it, and even said, not sure how he would go as he normally drives like a granny!

ang3lsholocaust ·

So has this thing come outside the garage yet?.
they better pull their finger out for warwick weekend.

LIFE IN THE LOW LANE ·

Drove past this arvo and it hasn't turned a wheel since it was put in the shed months ago....

I cant wait untill my mate(name withheld as he like to be quiet about things)finally finishes his drag car, most racers would know of him id guess,he used to own the yellow oval which he sold and i think is now cranky? he has spent a small fortune on it and it will be as much a show car as a drag car, and i mean he has won quite a few first places in shows over the years inc a 3rd place at the hot rod show , not bad for a vw, i have seen pictures of the build in progress and its going to be very nice and hopefully very quick🙂, i keep pushing him to finish it but he has a gf now so that may slow him down a little but apparently its getting close to finished🙂

Keep pushing Nasty mate. Warwick isn't that far away.

As for the car this thread is about it's got a lovely layer of crud all over it preserving it nicely and keeping it warm ...

vwsteve ·
