my old off-road buggy


I just dig this old video out of the closet & thought i`d share it with you lot

I wasn`t that up on suspension in those days so it was just a case of "cop the bumps & put up with it" until i worked out what the word "geometry" meant,,, & what the difference was between "shocks" & "Good quality" shocks :-)

but still , we had fun :-)

& actually, i really do believe that i should have left the entire V8 IRS Disc-brake drive train in the Splitty single cab-ute,,, it was a far far better car than the buggy,,, the kombi ute had way better suspension & actually turned a corner :-)

Cool old video. At the start of the video I was thinking that it was shot roughly in the mid-late 1970s, and then as you go past the spectators I saw '90s cars! Oops, I guess I may have over-estimated your age. Sorry about that! :crazy:
