A310 GrpIV factory car

only beating out the other one a Lanci Stratos GrpIV rally prepped car. ( because IT is the Hawk replica )

What do you mean by "lately". I see a whole brace every month and more often now the rally season is started !!!!

Don't put down Hawk reps. They're built just down the road from me ... I normally hear them before I see them

It's a kit with an actual 427 side oiler(i think that is the term).

Have pics but no scanner alas

A huge black Lagonda V12 sedan from the 1930s, unrestored but a magnificent beast nontheless - a real jaw-dropper. Gee it was a big car

Mid-50's Ford Customline (ie: US 1955-56 Ford) sedan that really lived up to its name. It had been fully customised back in the early 1960s into what quite closely resembles a '57 T-Bird hardtop. Story goes the constructor wanted a T-Bird but couldn't afford one, so bought a wrecked sedan cheap and started work in his suburban garage. Was 2-doored, sectioned, shortened, chopped, chanelled - you name it! - including having an entire Mainline ute roof welded on to achieve 'correct' greenhouse proportions

Fully restored Holden Sandman V8 panelvan with the OE stripes and in that great orangey colour, complete with a bevy of teenage girls in the back hanging out the open back window. Brought back heaps of memories, let me tell you ..
