In global terms, it is widely regarded that Australia has more than its fair share of motoring enthusiasts on a per-capita basis.

Bolwell and
Purvis marques, that today still boast a very strong allegiance of fans, to know that Aussie ingenuity could create something quite special (and please do not write in to remind us of the
