going to need some help with some info on the car i'm building!
hey guys and girls.
just thought i'd put a quick post up.
i'm building a replica rally car, from the 70's. as far as i'm aware its never been done before and the research i've done on said car seems to be very rare!
does anyone have any infomation or pictures of the 1977 wrigley's spearmint rally car? i need some images of the rear and top of the car…….it seems to be asa rare as rocking horse….well ya know!!
so far the car has been fully sprayed in the theme of the car.
it has a 1.8 turbo callaway engine in it. running on G60 management. any info on this engine would be great too!
it's coming along slowly but should look pretty special when it's done
any help would be greatly appreciated!
Dan.

Isn't there one in the VW Museum in Germany, I seem to recall but actually been there!
No gum on it though.

HAHA! i would consider myself a little crazy….
just put all the glass in today as the new headlining went in over the weekend (what a pain in the bum that was)
couldn't get the rear windscreen to go in though? the glass almost seems too big for the space? any tips to get it in? i'm using the old rope trick to get it in, any suggestions will be great thanks guys!
