The rear end very Toyota 2000 GT Sports and those exhaust pipes a bit over the top , but ...... The above taken from a magazine of the time . I still have advertising brochures with costings for making this car the stated cost for the body , chassis with mounting points , floorpan doors and bonnet all with glass fitted .....wait for it ... $899.00 then its plus , plus . I do prefer the wheels on this car compared to those on Pete Kordics yellow Mk7.

Bolwell Mk7 a boyhood dream of building one of these cars , the above is taken from a magazine of the time. In my home town of Grafton a policeman named Arthur Kennedy was building a Mk7 at a local service station and I would go down and watch and ask questions being inspired all the time ..

Boyhood dreams taken from a sports car magazine of the time 1967 which I still possess . No wonder I fell in love with it at first sight , I went onto meet a man Bob Quelch who was making his own car around a Jaguar engine and running gear ( see set The RQ ) . Bob became my mentor and all we talked about was Jags and I went on to own one myself ( see Jaguar Days ) a white Mk2 3.8 manual with chrome wires ... Nice car .

Abe Lincoln's earliest memories were of this homeplace .He remembered the family garden, the birth and death of his younger brother and his schooling experiences. Abraham and his sister Sarah could attend only in short periods. He even recalled nearly drowning when he fell into Knob Creek. He was saved by his friend Austin Gollaher.
