not a bug
A 1960 Morris Minor, Datsun Stanza rear end & worked Datsun 180B sss motor/gearbox . The air vent in boot is for the radiator & the rear guards are standard MM that have been sliced , flaired & filled- goes fkn good. It's off the road at the moment for a total rebuild , thinking about a rover V8 in it

Here's a pic of my old work car just before my lease was up, and insert is what the berlingo was capable of (fully loaded) down conrod straight.

I tell you what though trying to fang a loaded wagon through the hair pins up the top of the mountain was hair raising.

You joking a Citroen down Conrod? ROFPMSL

Oh well whatever gets your rocks off George.

You should try it in your current car mate.

You would look back and wonder what the hell you were thinking back then.

At 150 kph you just got into 3rd in the GTR.......

Gotta say ive always wished to try Mount Panarama but never had the time, its just too far away for me.

Legendry circuit.

You must get some weird looks while driving it though.

I will still say its a bug till you change your rear lights.

Geez alot of work on those guards mate, very old school, very individual.
