I remember Dave used to also have a LWB with a mid mounted V8 on which the body would open up like a drag car.....it was hinged at the back and i think the body lifted up hydraulically....had huge side windows in it that used to cook the kids in the back apparently....he even managed to get it liscensed!!!!!!....hey Craig.....should see if he has some pics!!!!
