Own your very own cover car.

Dig out your June/July 1985 issue of Street Machine and on the cover you'll see this car. I knew it looked familiar. Practically unchanged and with only 12,000 or so miles on the clock, it's still in brilliant condition.

Sure is great to see a piece of Aussie street machining history looking so good after all these years.
