    Thumbs up Bruce Garland's Rally VX...

    Found this VX for sale� he has mention that it is pending a sale overseas�
    He took some photos of it for me. I had a lot of question for him but he has yet to respond if and when he does I'll post.

    It is BAD AZZ! I want it.

    Here is the rap sheet on it...

    ISUZU VEHI-CROSS: One of only 900 right hand drive ever made.
    Raced once only in the United Arab Emirates Desert challenge.
    Built by Bruce Garland
    3.5L Isuzu quad cam V6 engine. 350HP
    5 speed Holinger gearbox & transfer box.
    Big diffs, front & rear
    Brembo brakes
    Body & chassis strengthened
    Twin Proflex shocks & air bump stops per wheel
    Rally rego.
    Absolute missile and head turner.
    Many more modifications, too numerous to list
    Spare rolling shell for body spares included.

    Interesting. A JDM modded to be more like the USDM. I sure would love to go full throttle with that in some open plains.

    I would love to know the technical specs of this one. A picture under the hood and of the exhaust would be nice. Is there a website for this one?

    Wow! I see some great mods for my daily driver...

    1. Replace the glass window with plexiglass and just have a sliding door to stick your hand through at the drive-thru's. I have been driving mine for 6 months with both windows unusable, so what is a few years....

    2. Sunglasses case attached to the door frame, within easy reach while driving the freeways....

    3. Fuse panel easy access while driving....

    4. Decals to cover the cladding dings and chipped paint areas....

    5. Exterior latches for the rear door for those times I park on an uphill incline and the rear popper release allows the door to swing open rapidly without any restraint until the hinges stop it....

    I can't wait to see the audio system Biju will get to make this rig sound good while driving....

    I'm curious about the orange one in the background. Is it just me or does it look like the roof is chopped off behind the second windows?

    The orange one is a Ute (short for "Utility"), the modern descendant of the not-a-car/not-a-truck El Camino type thing that the Australians just seem to love. From the cab shape my bet is that its likely the current model Ford Falcon Ute:

    Its a "ute" alright ...but I still think its a cut down VX. Look at the windshield angle and the window behind the door....2 seat VX!
