Check out the colour shot from the cover of Aust Hot Rod, sept '71. Regards Alex Title: Re: grunt Post by: NO NAME on March 06, 2005, 06:55:23 AM That is cool, how can I get mine to do that but with a red six up front.

fccool..dunno..ask ken or dr terry :-/ i guess he steers it with independant rear brakes. heres another quick looking fe/fc Title: Re: grunt Post by: Dave_EH on March 10, 2005, 11:21:21 AM I can see how the independent brakes would steer it a little... but have a look at his line of sight! It wouldnt matter if he was blindfolded - the vision is zero!
I think it would be pretty scary :o Dave Title: Re: grunt Post by: mcl1959 on March 11, 2005, 10:22:48 AM Although not visible in the photo, I believe the car had a hole in the flor for vision. Some captions I have on the car state that it could actually be driven round corners using the rear wheel brakes alone.
