So you could assume it has been built better than some of the Cobras that have been built by mechanically challenged individuals in the past .

Rod Hadfield was a legend from when I first started modifying cars in 1969. This guy is the Holy Grail though I do believe we were putting HR Holden disc brake front ends and steering into FX-FJ Holdens before anyone had even thought of it.

Rod has built so many wild and wonderful cars from SBC into '48 Anglia called RedBack right through to twin 671 blown BBC T-Bucket, SBC into FB Holden wagon and all the projects built by Castlemaine Rod Shop which are too numerous to mention.

I do not believe that car is legally registered and Rod would not have gone that way. If I am wrong, I stand corrected but Castlemaine Rod Shop was hot on what was right and what was wrong.

Last time I spoke with Rod, he was building salt flat racers and off to Utah Salt Flats, that was quite a while ago.
