    I always wanted a Wolseley - so I turned the hubcaps of my Morris Oxford upside down, turning the M into a W.

    It was first developed for use in tractors, so it is basically a wet lined tractor engine, plonked in a few sporty( at the time) looking cars. A dog is a dog, wether it barks or not.

    When I was younger I always wanted a Holden. So I cut the exhaust of my Vauxhall.

    OT but in the latest NZ Hot Rod magazine there's an article on Musclecar Madness event at Rangoon (or is that Ranginui?) - and a pic of a Series 1 Vanguard ute.
