jrh001 Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 ...And haven't seen an 105E Anglia for years. I used to race against them with 289 V8's in them at Warwick Farm. Was this car V8 powered? Hi Dennis, No it's not a V8. Here's a better pic: Nice rims!

cazz Posted April 8, 2010 Author Share Posted April 8, 2010 Don't have a scanner working at present, but maybe these pics will suffice.D My Car looks very differnt under the bonnet to the car in that pic. That engine bay shot, is of the 85-86 cars. Even tho the program is from 1987, that doesn't mean the pic is. My air box, radiator and a heap of other stuff is different. My car also had more power for 1987, 276kw versus 246 in 1986. Mine does not have a rear stabiliser bar either. Mine was the only one set up for radials, so maybe this is why the roll cage is so different, no strut brace, and no rear stabiliser. My car had been rebuilt also before it was retired. Everything in it is new, including shocks, springs etc. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/313783-another-george-fury-dr30-is-back-racing-in-historics/page/3/#findComment-5170818 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boof Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 I just watched the videos of it at phiilip island and it looks like a bit of a handful! Is that a bad ignition breakdown down the main straight?

Ghostrider Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Cazz, Do you know what spring rates are in the back of your #30 car?

No, that car is mine, when it belonged to Terry Ashwood, it was taken out of the restaurant for that feature.

When the car is on the air jacks and warming up, the movement in the rear is unreal.
