It's not a Manx, but cool buggy. What's the story? Who owns it?

Sponsored by Rod Penrose Racing. Driven by me.
Last owner was Clyde, and he kept his engine, so we'll be running a fresh motor.
Comes with everything else needed to go racing, just need a few late nights to check that all works as it should.
Henry, any videos (film?) of you and the buggy? Maybe some photos?

Craig, maybe some VHS if I can dig them out of the archives. However, I do have some (good?) shots of the underside of the polished aluminium floorpan and deformed wheelie bars from Eastern Creek Raceway in '92. I'll bring 'em with me to Portland.-H

awesome...sceaming out for some fatter rear tyres though...not that I think it would need them for traction
fullnoise ·
Great score Craig. That looks awesome. I was expecting something ratty. Oh ah it's all fancy.
