Hello from Hobart, Tasmania.

Hello from Hobart, Tasmania. Just thought I would share a couple of pics of my Birkin XS. The car was delivered as a car in a box from South Africa and assembled in Canberra. It has an OMEX Duratec engine and a Tracsport type 9 close ratio gearbox driving a Subaru R160 diff with a KAZZ LSD

Beautiful car! What is the spec of the Duratec? BTW looks like the link provided by Imgur was missing the file extension, so adding that and embedding the photo here.

Great color!

Thanks John. My ONEX Duratec is 210 bhp, ITB,S, Extractors and Cams, lightened flywheel. Internals are stock. It seems a very match for the car.

Love the blue - really pops!

 

 

I am guessing you took that photo at Franklin Marine on the Huon River, as the old MV Cartela is in the background. I donated some money for the restoration although I heard they put the vessel up for sale this year as they could not reach the target needed. I hope they can sort something out to bring her back to operating condition.

Spot on Croc. It is a shame but Cartela is a lost cause.
