1989 Peugeot 205. You know, the one that was parked in a ditch on the campsite at RRG'17... the glass is always full. but the ratio of air to water may vary. |

Even though I loved that car I think this is the only photo I took of it, at the NASC nats in '92. I don't think I ever saw it again.  |

Concept:  Exectution:  Make it look like a standard SD1 with plastic arch extensions, and it'd be win all the way. |

Rather than just being shortened a bit to coupe it, do i remember correctly that it was about 7/8 scale all round as well?

I remember it, think I only saw it in print though. Does properly look like a Skoda Rapid from the rear though.

Is this (the bottom picture) the pink car? I took the picture at the Doncaster car show in 95/6.  |

Also Roger Blounts mega modified Saab 96 and Gary Hall?'s mega modified Pop. Both 2 of my faves from back in the day. Wonder where they are now.

I have a picture of the Saab from the same show (my only visit to Donny but the display and background match) yet have no recollection of seeing the Rover there.  Does look good in that blue. |
