Ahh Matty, Stefan may have but I"m still looking......


deano, Jethrow, yep the suzuki 6 speed sequential box is cleverly coupled to a prop shaft then thru a Quaife reversing box to another shaft into the Sierra diff. That little lever to the right of the handbrake flicks back to engage reverse, so 6 speeds backwards as well!

Rego?? Dooon't even go there.....it makes me all emotional

No times sorry, ask the guy in WA who just bought it from me, he's got a Dax already and apparently needed another one!

Does anyone else look at Dave's collection of built, building or yet to be built cars and want his life? How do you do it?
