G'day joezan,

Have you got your heart set on the Caltrac type design, or just some form of traction bar? Lakewood still make the traction bars, which are available from places like American Autos (Rare Spares Sydney) for around the $100 mark.

Cheers,
Harv

Thanks Harv, yes I prefer the Caltrac type I thought I saw a tangerine 350 FE with some at a car show in Walla but never got close and personal to look properly wished I met the guy for a chat.
