im 90% sure this bloke used to live next to me about 5-6 years ago? very similar looking car if not.

not sure where he moved off to, is a rent house next door so probably got kicked out for starting his car at 7am on a Sunday morning[88]

Beastly looking car that's for sure. Doesnt exactly blend into the traffic, im sure someone has seen it since.

he lived near cliff ave and was a young bloke that had lost his license... thats all i remember...

and im sure it was a rental... but it wasn't near were u live now... the car was real tough so u would have known it when it started....

maybe its sitting in a shed somewhere?

Anyone notice the NOS?

Are they 12's on the front! Obviously this car was put together with a priority on saving weight.

Looks the mutts nuts! I would have been a sleeper at the lights that's for sure.

i want a capri now [:u] that thing looks great

I remember the Capri....and used to grow a trouser Bone everytime I saw it.

The Blue Escorty could have been inspired by Adrian Woods Escort (Orange one). Imagine how many of these cars we would have if AIR was still going[V]

I'd love to build a Maltastyle Mk 1 Dragstar...one day....one day.

yeah him jeff and adrian were mates.. the blue escort was more around the time that adrian had just finished the 1200 ute though...

im not sure but the one next door was a darker green than that, and we only moved to seaford in 2000, so unless your mate was staying in seaford then it proberly isnt the car.

Mate, I found some photos...
Sorry about the quality, they're pictures of pictures if you know what I mean.
This trip is 2000 Summernats.

Stocked up and on our way.

Cruising the track.

Spear a spud.

Motorkhana.

Motorkhana again.
Jeff came 6th outright in 2000 from memory.

And just some proof that it was indeed Summernats.

In the background of the last photo there is indeed one of the security gaurds quad bikes on top of a lounge which was quite a nice comfort fire for all in the area.[88][88][:u]
