Brad - October 13th, 2007 at 10:03 PM

what front suspension setup? - Kand Link front IRS rear
modified rear trailing arms ? - Nope stock
Rear height adjuster? - Yeah, it is splines on the spring plates :thumb
Rollcage? - nope why would you need one if you can drive properly ...
Interior photo's? - checker door trims, front sports seats.

How much rego? - dunno few months at least.

This Baja was originally built in NSW and has a full NSW engineers report with it. I had it re-inspected in QLD and rego up here but it also has history in NSW so could get Rego there without issue.

Body has been a bare metal re-spray as has the pan. I would say about 6 years or so ago.

It has had a lot of $$$$ spent on it over the years and is well worth the $$$$ as you couldn't build a 1/4 of the car for what Pete is chassing.

If only it was a buggy ...

Oh and it got it's ass kicked at Warwick by the Geko ... 2 10ths of a second ... oh hang on a minute the Baja came, raced and then drove home sitting on 120kmph, the Geko came, broke, got fixed, broke again and got railered home.... hehe But is still went faster than the Baja ....

thats sensible, buy somewhere, give it a year or so and take out a small equity loan and get something cool then.
