Yeah!!! That is Awesome!!! Thrashing classic metal. Love to see an old purist do that in his split window. Wait til Subybaja see this. At least the guy doing the hill climb at the end didn't get stuck in a bush. :no:

right, but would she get most of the way up it and then back her scooter into a tree and have to be cut out? :P

Menangler,
one of my favourite books as a kid had a pic of a 70s baja crossing stream with water spraying up everywhere. It was a split window....

If the yanks can build big dumb drag cars out of split window shells, why shouldn't terry butcher them to make Bajas. :punk:

Pete,
I'm not saying he shouldn't, if he's got a split and wants to Baja it, go right ahead, sure would be a shame though.

I think a later model would make better Baja.

Just for the record, the the comment "these cars haven't been butchered" was tongue in cheek.

Post a cool video, and looks like it will turn into a stock V modified argument!!, I'm not going there!

Nah, I was mucking around. But you have a point, I'm amazed how well that 25hp stocker pulled up that hill. Maybe, stock is better, certainly more reliable anyway :o

P.s. Terry will be back on here in any minute saying he's fine coz his Subie is still a stocker motor! :P
