If my opinion on this matter is not vindicated by your experience Tony it at least reinforces my prejudice.
I am far more interested in original equipment. David

A certain Toyman once squashed a modern Ford V8 and auto into an F15 with 20-inch wheels and a White Scout Car diff centre. Went like the clappers: I drove it from Murchison to Bandiana and return on one of the rare VMVC outings to the Bandiana Museum, etc (the year we all stayed at the VMR depot in Albury - some old VMVC-ers will remember, especially Berry's DOG!). Over that weekend, I was being laughed at by a bunch of idiots in a Datsun 1600 while waiting for the traffic lights. When the lights changed, I 'smoked em' for the first several hundred yards out across the Causeway to Albury! It might have been non-original, but it sure was heaps of fun to drive. Wonder what happened to it after Toyman sold it.

It ended up in Tassie, a well known collector on the NW coast bought it ( we all know him ) . His collection was sold and some local fisherman bought it. They used it to haul boats up onto the beach . It was stranded on a high tide and it got wet ![]() This is what I was told, so its a story that I cannot say is the truth or not.
