Hi Yoda,
I remember the sedan with Yoda on the boot lid. I used to love that car, I used to stare at it and think I would have one like it one day. I was only about 12 or 13 at the time.
What happened to that car ?

Love the pics. especially the motorkhana - brings back memories of 1960's car club competitons. Could you magine such enthusiasm being allowed nowdays ,even an elbow out the window of a stopped vehicle is looked on as life threatening today.

I don't recall that. I just remember looking at Yoda. He was coooool.
You may remember my mums sedan that had the Alfa grill triangle with the Isuzu centre logo, or the red GT with the large vinyl sun roof ( Herbie style ).
