I like 'em - problem is they're nearly always undertyred and the stance is all wrong.

I reckon the front clip is a great shape.

Here's one from Pirate I found:

There was one in Petersens 10 years ago or so that was awesome. Ran a 500ci Caddy motor, all sorts of recycled desert race parts - 40 spline 9" diffs from memory, bobbed 14"... It brought the cool.

Anyone got photos of the Coil one from Albury, Greg I think?

He didn't like it being called a choccie box.
