Just wondering if anyone has any info on these machines.

My biggest question is how much did the actual underpinnings of the shell change over the years as it went from being a swing axle steering box nightmare to something quite different.

Cheers

Look how you worded your question. I think he's eluding to the fact that someone somewhere has information about the car....

Reminds me of when you ask someone "Lemme see that hammer."

and they say..."Do you want to see it or do you want to use it?"
