Default Re: 34 Roadsters how many were built?

The wood between the US ones and the Auzy ones are almost identical ,You can see by the photos.photo one and four are the US one and 2 & 3 the Auzy ones .The difference is the Floor were the Auzy one had wood from the front of the Rumble ricer forward .My understanding was that the Australian Govt wanted a high percentage of local content in the cars as they were imported as Knock down body's .They went to a lot of trouble to put the Wood floor in. These were US body's cut down ,fact the wood floor in picture 5 has a certain appeal .As far as values go there may not be much between them on Brizeos site you can see the US and Auzy Phat on side by side being restored .
