  • Alpine Rally

    Hi all,
    Off to compete in the Alpine Rally in the Mk1 this weekend. It's run by our club the Historic Rally Associaton. Over 110 cars competing. It's a 3-day event run in the forests around Lakes Entrance. It's a gravel event with one bitumen stage of 35km with a total competive distance of 380km. I'll post when we get back and let you all know how it went, hopefully well.
    Geoff

                          wow. great car. that cage is nice - co-worked on a few of similar complexity in VX commodores and they have more room to get inside and weld - i can only imagine what yours would have been like to weld up!

                          very inspirational - cheers
