Hi,

Well, me thinks the "tubbed/rotar" TA22 GT is a GT only due to it's former status. Personally, I think it's a crying shame to do that to such a great and rare car, and it would be nigh impossible to get it back to its former glory. It can be classified as a GT in name only now.

River's RA25 however, is still (except for the wheels) in it's original JDM GT glory. Original engine, dash, seats, shocks, springs, trannie, diff, fender mirrors (they're sooooo cool) and colour.

The GT's were evaluated in early 1974 and, due to their performance and lack of intrusion bars, it was deemed that they would be in a high insurance category and therefore not imported, even though some car yards (like Stewart Toyota and Bill Buckle Toyota) reckoned they could of moved 50 or more per month without a problem.

I beleive there's an original near mint TA22 GT in Western Oz. I think it's the one that Rod nearly bought some years ago. I think this car is still going strong also. I'll check this out and let you know.

Also, there was that RA28 GTV (or was it an RA29 or RA35?) that was in Canberra and was sold a few months ago. I dunno if it is still in OZ or if it was sent o/seas.
