Introducing Peter Burns from Western Australia.
|
G'Day
from Australia.
|
|
Peter's Falcon is painted in
Honda Carnival Yellow.
The Tourer is fitted with a tonneau cover.
|
|
Peter has kindly sent me some photos of his car, including
some, detailing his build. His kit was purchased from Fraser Auto Sports
Tourers.
|
|
Peter's build coming along nicely.
Plenty of room in his garage to do everything.
|
Here you can see my storage compartment in lieu of a rear seat,
so it is really a 2 seater tourer.
|
|
|
Fitted under the bonnet is a Toyota
22 RE fuel injected engine. |
This is the Standard Tourer opening boot.
But what lies behind it.
I have included a 20
gallon fuel tank in the boot, good for just over 500 miles. As I do around 50 miles a day to work. |
|
|
The dashboard (no photo) has all the instruments in the
centre section of the dashboard instead of behind the steering wheel,
all made of Jarrah.
(West Australian hardwood, imagine a straight grained
mahogany).
|
The car is coming along well now. |
|
|
My car is almost ready to be fitted with all beige leather
interior.
I have a material soft top and separate tonneau cover.
|
Did I say that there are no side
windows on any of their cars and others that have
appeared in The JBA Owners Club magazine. Wrong again Robbie |
|
|
Also I do have windows which are made
of 10mm stainless steel rod which slip into 2 holes in the top of the
door. These have a zipped window in them. Easily removable and good for
the rain here during winter.
|
The car has been on the road since 1998 and took me about
two years to build.
The car is used daily and I have just
about reached 60,000Kms (35,000 miles).
|
Just look at that
plate.

Have a look at Peter's Own Web Site. The
link is below.
He has a very good lawnmower and with a surname like Burns,
where do you think his lawnmower originated.
