Pity, LOVED this car, still got the Street Machine with it on the front cover.
Though anyone ever notice something funny about the reg over the years?

Mick is fine but the car is a total write off. He is still trying to decide what to do next.

It did 1.5 60fts, same as andrewg's focus, when you get a start that good you dont need much power to run a good time
