Hi guys, I got these photos from a friend, so I don't know much about it, just wanted to share the pics he took:



I don't know if this car is familiar to any of you here but all I can say is... got dish?

Pretty sure thats chookys Grp A Staz

^^^^^^^^^^^^^ that it most certainly is!

JB with JA rear lights maybe?

i thought only ja had a keyhole in the petrol flap?

Would love to get a look under the bonnet there. Look at the battery location sticker. It has a power kill switch at the front of the car.

Very interesting.

im tippin ja with jb pilla vents

bigmoz :pimp

and i think it is posable to broardcast from dish that big i saw the ch7 sport but i thought that was just sponsership

bigmoz :pimp

Also has the flat JB\D bonnet!?

ja mirrors :)

thats one of THREE original group a touring cars still around from the '80s. that car was raced at bathurst for a few years, in the same white yellow & red livery u see here, its all over the bathurst yearbooks from back then.

it was originally a JA group E (production touring ie showroom stock) car but was updated to JB spec when it was rebuilt for the group A touring car class. the JB tail lights are obviously rarer and more expensive than JA`s.. and manual mirrors are lighter than power units!

its fking cool any how

Have seen this car on more than 1 occasion & spoken 2 driver about his car . It was great 2 seehim battleing with v8s &catching some of them with his better corner speed. He doesent have cam specs

i posted pics of me in chooks car ages ago. And yeah you should see the engine bay, its quality you just dont see anywhere but under the bonnet of a race car. Top bloke too.
