Is it A-Series only? I think it should be...
So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'...

The only parts that I haven't replaced or modified on the clubby are:

gear box casing
transfer casing
drive shafts
front hubs
back plates for the rear brakes
rear light clusters
windscreen
rear windscreen rubber

I also have the original shell & front sub-frame but they've both been modified.

about 60% of the bare shell is original - everything else got lost, turfed out or sold through the years as I moved workshops
