I've never seen one Craig - could't help you but will keep an eye out in future.

I believe they are factory but extremely rare. I've only ever seen photos of one red Australian one. :)

Youre talking rarest of the rare type 3 stuff.I would kill for one,I once seen what I thought was one in Richmond,I did a u turn and chased it,anyway the guy parked on Swan st,I jumped out it was a weld job,There is photos of oz ones around in some books but never seen one,Weld up a square back is the only option,Unless type 3 detectives sell theres ,But I doubt it.

Rare as hell know of a few genuine ones floating around melbourne.
A mate has a black one that is made from pretty much NOS parts with genuine BRMs.
Cool.
