- Background & Plans
- Purchased in 2010 to replace crashed highly modded SVO t-roof clone (purchased in 1987); transferred drivetrain, roll bar, suspension etc. over to new convertible build....which took on a life of it's own
OCD build, lots of nice touches, drives reasonably civil, is reasonably fast and tons of fun
