seriously though, that orginal drop top coupe looks HAWT. Do want. How much do they go for?
60-70k IIRC.

Seen a bunch of Bolwells now, including the largest VIC gathering at PI last year. The 'vert is my favourite too.

The new on looks a bit generic as everyone seems to think. A straight rebuild of the old ones would appeal to the Classic or Retro fans I suppose and it was a sweet design. I would have rather r a modern interpretation of the old design like some U.S. makers are doing with their classics.
Really.

And stick a stinkin LS2 in it!!!

Do a search on aussie race cars, you will be amazed at some of the cars that were built in this country.


I'll start you off -Veskanda, Kaditcha, Cheetah< google
WE probably walked past these at PI this year.

OMFG!.. Word of warning on Kaditcha It's spelt right dont correct it.

The Cheetah looks like a Ferrari.
