Good story isn't it. I like that show, they always seem to find worthwhile stories to focus on... although in some close up shots, some of the dust looks odd... like it was sprinkled on?

Absolutely! Hunting down the original owner. Wanted a Phase 3, then saved his coin and rocked up to a dealer trying to put an order in for a Phase 4, doesn't get anymore old school than that.

The dust seems legit to me (from what I've seen on other shows that feature a similar find). I think some of that gunk could have settled on the car when it was parked outside and they just pushed it in the shed. The crunched cover seems to have been sitting there for yonks.

Anyone know about the T.T. stamp or the extra-wide/Flared guards?

Full episode of Police Camera Action which documents the police dash through busy London city in 1987 to try and get a liver to a hospital before someone died. Shown from the dash camera of the backup car behind the lead car, pretty amazing effort.

I put some vids a while back of some dude in Indonesia driving a Monaro around and scaring everyone. If you dig a little deeper we have enthusiasts abroad that love Aussie classics/muscle.

LOL... @ 3:25, I bet some Aussie tourist gave him that t-shirt and told him that it was a popular band back home.

This brings up many possibilities.

Could we have Teslas mixing it up at Bathurst along with the V8s? Off the mark is one thing, but the endurance required for a race over those conditions and that distance? Maybe a Tesla only race - Formula Tesla anyone? Start your engines, gentleman and ladies....oh, they already are....

And with that quick-off-the-markness, how long before someone in a Tesla decides to thoroughly embarass, not to mention get way from, the boys in blue? I reckon the old Bill is going to have to have some Teslas of its own in the police motor pool.

Wish there was UnderTheBonnetCam, so we could see what part(s) decided to launch moonwards - and then found the bonnet in the way

Not necessarily accurate, but I'm picturing a piston...........
