looks good but you missed one of the best kept secrets off the car......

I should dig my car out and take some pix. I think I even have the body that I ran in Australia that race. lol But I didnt make the A main like my brother.

Welcome to the board Steve!
I used to race at the Teen Center 1985-86. You probably don't know my name but you might recognize me and I am sure that you remember some of my friends - Guy Miller & Mike Geim.
L8r,
Brian

Steve I'm happy you're coming with us, your comments are welcome...
My project is on this pic from the WC 89...

The only part I need is the rear white nylon toe in.

Welcome Steve. Its a great honour to see you up here with us. I never thought in a million years that asking questions about your brother Mike would result in yourself, Jeff Harris and Ruffy would turn up on this board.

So you still have the car from the 89 worlds?

Thankyou-Jason.
