Modified over a few years while I was in the RAAF. Bought it in 1968 only 4 years old and ready to FLY.

By 1970 and the release of the Ford GT-HO taxis' I had it cooking with twin 4bbls and 258 ci. after complete rebuild. It was great at the Calder Drags on TV beating the new HO's as I was on the edge of 13's and they could not believe an old Valiant 225 six was blowing them away. Imagine what it would do with a TURBO!

Quickest recorded time was 14.02sec 1320' but I am sure it went quicker or the Ford GTHO's were going slower than they seemed.

With the suspension done and 8's and 9's on the back we out ran a Porsche 911 out the Geelong freeway past Brooklyn and Laverton doing over 120 Mph through the curves and more. (YOUNG&STUPID) Eventually sold it and bought the Rambler Hornet.
