    That there is an Australian car, built by the much over rated Rod Hadfield of 'Castlemain rod shop' fame. The car runs a Lincoln V12, this guy builds his own cars but has the big dollars to buy all the best parts you can find.
    This is the guy responsible for the 55 Chevy 'Final Objective' with the Merlin V12 in it and a T coupe with twin blowers on a shot gun 427 and more recently a T coupe with and ARDUN head, SCoT Blown flattie, the only full rego car in Australia without front brakes. I wonder how the fuck he managed to do that when they knock back some cars with drums as they dont have enough stopping power for the size??
    Hes like our version of Boyd but he builds trad styled cars.
    Doc.

    He shipped it over here and drove it something like 8,000 miles in 6 months I think. Has been in every car magazine on the planet. Been on the Hamb too. Very cool.
