Not a bad looking machine, does look very similar in the intereior to Gary's old AU II, but he didn't have the body kit did he?.

Yeah it is, the who owns it works near I do. Used to see it everyday.
Its changed a bit since Gary had it though, 2 or 3 different sets of wheels, different wing, lowered even further?

One would think that if you were advertising a car on ebay, you would at least learn to punctuate, and not type EVERYTHING IN CAPITOLS!
Nice car though! -Stu

Yep
Thats my old car, and it did hit the barrier in reverse on the Monash! Suprised at price, but I dare say he has spent some cash on her as well

Nice car, those wheels would have to be worth a fair bit. What sort of power did it put out when you had it Laminge? Is it running a T56 gearbox?

Yes Dave.
Memories of seeing it with John Bowe driving it around Calder with Gary sitting in the passanger seat, grinning from ear to ear. Ohh ant they had no brakes. :o Then it threw a blower belt.

That stain led to the replacement of the leather seat too!
Also had to replace the passenger door handle as I yanked it out as Bowe took those corners!
