The memories....
That's my old daily driver.
I did some good trips in that car (Road trips!).
Greg Ward and I bunged his spare 1916 Pobjoy Steroid engine in it for the VW Nationals drags at Oran Park. We also took it out to Eastern Creek for a
bit of fun. See the YouTube link.

It was built in Canberra in the late 1980s or early 1990s. It was a Porsche metalic brown with black empi 8 spoke wheels. It sits on an IRS chassis
too.
I first laid eyes on it in about 1993 when it was on display in front of parliment house during the Veedub Club Canberra's "Show & Climb"
event. I puchased it about 6 or 7 years later from a lady in Neutral Bay, Sydney for about $4,500.
I clocked up heaps of kms in it commuting between Avalon and North Sydney.
There's nothing like having an oval daily driver to hold up your oval restoration. I warned Elvis of this fact when I saw his black resto when I sold
he car to him.
The oval is now a stunt double of his resto which was very impressive when I saw it ages ago.
Cool! CT
