1950 Commer 1 1/2 tonner built in Auckland New Zealand in early 1980s
Wolseley 6/110 indy front end with discs, 327 Corvette V-8 with floor change manual
Eventually a Laycock overdrive was fitted to the automatic diff head that gave this an enormously tall top gear
Plywood floorboards were original, it weighed nothing and it was STREET LEGAL(!)
Hustle!? Yo Mama... the looks of utter astonishment from the sports car set when this roared past them in stoplight races were priceless...Grins
