Aussie Specials
Dale,
- A great Aussie special. Please find attached a snap of my 24 yr old father's first "project" car - an all Aussie JWF ITALA. My father built the car in Darwin in 1962. The car comprised a singer chassis and gearbox (Why? because that is all he could find in Darwin in 1962!!), grey motor Holden donk and triple brass bodied SUs ex Alvis Silver Eagle! The car reputedly had a terminal velocity of 107 mph (indicated) and no brakes! I believe that approx 30 shells were produced all up - quite a pretty car.
