Dave I don't think the ear looks too bad - boobs would be better of course - a lifesize playboy photo printed up the side of your coupe maybe?

So if I read that right, the Pioneer EAR car at the top - IS - James's 383 TT race car? I know its a real race car with heritage and stuff but can never remember when he says who used to race it, too close to the car to concentrate on words and such.
You didn't know about the fire? his transporter caught fire in the adelaide hills on his way to the first round, car burnt to the ground, he still competed at the event borrowing John Goss's XBGT, he built a new car in 6 weeks (i believe) and it was called the phoenix falcon. thats why there are no good photos of Brut 33 and all the work that was done to it in the US by Lee Dykstra. he competed in bathurst in the new car but it broke down after parts from the car in fire were used on the new car and failed :

there was a full issue on the car in aus muscle car magazine issue 26.
