Couldnt agree more about the sound of a carby v8... especially with a gilmer drive, sounds awesome Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Yes Calais NV, certainly is; they're worth a bit of money in good condition; put it on Ebay and it should easily fetch several hundred $$$; just make sure you quote all the right markings on the back of the wheel...
