Some Qld. Mk.7 news.

Jason found some time to catch up with Peter Parnell on Brisbane's North side. Peter is doing a great job on Col Cuthbert's old car which he documents on a blog called "Mark 7 Bolwell" like, for example, the fitting of a 178 KW RX8 rotary which sits back 400mm behind the front cross member.

Jason liked the outside door handles that sit flush with the top and side of the door but I think they're from a particular model Toyota Crown and were popular among early Mk.7 builders.

Here is the stance the front of the car takes.

The rear lights are impressive but they too have been tried by others and are also from a Toyota Crown that was slightly newer than the Crown that provided the original lights.

According to Jason the IRS is a work of art and the the car sports 2 x 20L fuel tanks that sit behind each seat. The last photo shows a fuel tank and a bit of the rear suspension.
