Here’s one of mine. Sadly it’s the only picture I have. I had a lot of pictures on photobucket and they deleted my account without telling me. Wasn’t the best example, was very rough underneath but it performed well. M3s were very cheap a few years ago so a lot of them got bought up for drifting, staging etc. and it’s hard to find a good one. The Evo Individual I had was perfect in every way. I sold it to buy a UR Quattro and the Quattro deal fell through so I wish I had kept it.

For me it has to be an orange Volvo/DAF 55. I have a fetish for oddball cars. It showed up in a scrapyard one day and I said I have to save that. I never thought about why the owner scrapped it. I loved the belt drive CVT. The transmission was super weird and the car would go as fast in reverse as it would forward. I tried it once. Going 60 mph backwards is the scariest thing I ever did. I loved the shape of the car so I planned to fit a 2.0 pinto and type 9 gearbox along with an atlas back axle. There was no space to widen the transmission tunnel, only room for 2 pedals on the floor. Hands down the most stupid car I ever bought.

Here you go, completed 1970 Opel GT. That’s also a Maserati Merack that was in for some electrical work.
