Oz-built, and I’m sure if it was capable of flying, a mate of mine in New Zealand would start sniffing….!!

hmmm,….$20K for the Spit,… approx $5K for a good V12 Jag engine, about another $5K of mounting brakes, the prop and engine mounts…..
taxi-able replica with nearly the right sounds 😀

Very Interesting Daz
Good to see that some mad aussies still have some hobbies to keep them amused :p , Was it built here in Oz :confused: , First I need 20 grand :rolleyes: , Then a place to put it 🙁 , Maybe my Mother who is in Cairns N/Queensland, Can lend it to me and then I can put the Spit her back yard 😎 , Cheers Daz, Tally Ho! Phil 😉
