Genuine Gartrac G6 ???

If it's on the usual Q plate it could have been Ian Willacy's car - PM me the reg number and I can confirm.

Gra 26-03-2007 06:10 PM

If it's the one that Duncan owned, then It's the car I got built (from a brand new shell)
and sold to him many years ago Q424 DPF....... :top:

Most Gartrac G6's were RWD but they built a few 4x4 shells as well.

The one in the pic has the wide kevlar or alloy front & rear wings - so it's unlikely
someone would go to that much trouble and expense and keep it front wheel drive.

OK, but I'm sure the one Spadge had did not have the wide arches fitted.....did it?

So it looked more like a Series 2 (RST) "sleeper".

jr 26-03-2007 06:26 PM

spadge crashed one looked like an S2

but before that didnt he own that one, or one like it for a few weeks with a cvh on carbs

Shings 26-03-2007 07:17 PM

OK guys


Spadge had this one- its FWD and was 1600cvh on 48's
Underneath was pretty damn trick.

Dunc then had it and did a track day in it.

Chad bought/brought it from Dunc and was gonna do somet to it.

As with all Chads projects it ended up in bits and never got put back together.

Rich- XR4x4 on here had the shell and then sold swapped it for somet or somet like that.

Hope this helps.

Who knows this car inside out them? my friend has a few questions about it

Shings 26-03-2007 08:50 PM

I do

what do you want to know

Jake

vroooom ptssssh 26-03-2007 08:53 PM

Howcome the engines pushed right forward, suerly you'd want it as far back as possible?

maybe for grip but neve saw that before.

Shings 26-03-2007 09:00 PM

I cant remember the exact reason but it was forward and low- it had a massive big wing sump on it too..

Its actually tilted forwards and the gear shift inside the car was customised/lower down to accomodate the change in location of the engine

Wheres all the stickers gone :DD:

Dan 26-03-2007 09:15 PM

Spadge's car was a proper sleeper, looked just like a Series 2 on Rondells and WAS NOT wide arched! ;)

Gartrac Mike on here now owns it IIRC :top:

Any more pics?

Dunccoss 29-03-2007 05:26 PM

I had this car for a while but it just wasnt fast enouth for me lol, was going to build a big power engine for it but decided to buy a focus rs instead as i could use that on the road as well as the track, it had 150 bhp as i had it on the dyno, it had some trick bits on it and just need an engine to go with it all, i do have pics if you want some and doug its not the same car lol
