Well we got a finish at least, and we were fastest stage car by a country mile until we found a critical weakness in the front ball joints.
Nonetheless car regularly set top ten stage times even with us taking it easy. Now needs a new owner to enjoy her. Advert at: http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C769803 uploads/13586/AMX_Duen.jpg"> Huzzah, JIm |

I tracked those guys online for about the first six days until the blog posts took so long to load on my computer. I still have DSL, not a real high-speed line. Very interesting though and the weak point for the AMX sure proved to be the front suspension. Joe
