Some Mk7 pricing..


Trimmed Dash $16.70! I will soon post some of the build diagrams and info that could be helpful for those owners who don't have it.

Mk 7 Sales Brochure


Dick Murphy was the Bolwell agent here in WA, his main business at the time was car wrecking.  Cannington Auto Wreckers, later changed to Japwreck is still going today and is one of the better, well organised wrecking business's around.

This full bodied HQ regularly embarrassed other race cars of more than twice its engine capacity - Ravenswood Raceway circa 1987.

When you're Hot..

Light and easy to maintain, the humble red motor in all its glory.

The Standard


This is John Read's magic little Standard, I think Flying 8. He's owned it for some 40 odd years developing it along the way with the red motor pushing out a very impressive 330HP now. It sports a Jzed alloy head and triple webers....nice.
