Hmmm - Not sure I agree with everything the interviewee said but he was quite persuasive with some of his arguments!!? Grin Grin

Bit less talking and more shots of the car next time Mr Film maker! Still it's the first moving footage that I have seen of that car. Wouldn't it be fantastic to meet up with it on 3MA09...?

Thanks for posting the item Graham - Let's really crank up the watching of 131 videos on Youtube - That will confuse the hell out of Viacom!? Wink

This one of my favourite clips from Youtube - What an awesome machine for a 70s 2 wheel drive rally car!! Grin

Yes Kev,

The 031 should be centre of attention in the video, it would sound beautiful under load  Grin
That guy in the blue Abarth can slide the old girl as well as the top drivers from way back then, the way he flicks, drifts and corrects is so much more entertaining than watching someone in a modern 'whoosh-pop' turbo 4WD electro-bottom-wiper push button technology special.....(me rant?..never) Wink
Modern rally cars need to get 'real' again.

But that is a replica/copy is it not?  Huh The rear end looks very different to the original.  Undecided

Thanks Kev,

Its true to say that the 035 is probably based on the 031 due to it sharing the Pantera rear end and underbody structure,  so it is easy to confuse them.... Wink
