So did Dave Pinkney build that car or was it ex- VLM ? This could win a trivia challenge one day mtpanorama ?
I could ask Paul but he might set his big guard dog onto me |

More developments...
No wonder Mr Buttrose ran with MoPro for so long if, as suggested by the article, he was bankrolling them |

Yes one in the same...... and even more of a coincidence, the current owner of the BMW bought the dry break fuel system which was fitted in the Hyundai Lantra Paul drove from me as it was missing from the BMW when the current owner bought it..... Small world huh! |

Interesting line at the bottom: The appeal court also noted that Buttrose had prospects of rehabilitation and had given assistance to authorities.
Thought as much. Word from prosecutors to appeal judges that he's been helpful, they reduce his sentence claiming errors from trial judge. Interesting if he survives long enough to be released. |

If you google the person's name, on some other forums he seems to have had a number of issues with other racing competitors |

Remember reading and hearing about this particular individuals "modus operandi" a couple of years ago where he allegedly liked to take the money up front, but not complete the work on customers vehicles.
Seems like he has another string to his bow........allegedly. |

Another customer was told his car wasnt ready for the weekend but turned up to a local track to find someone driving his supposedly unfinished racecar-allegedly of course. Etc etc. Hopefully justice takes its course and this guy gets his just desserts.

Other moments of idiocy include a written-off 350Z top shelf drift car, belonging to someone else, and apparently lifting a laptop, also belonging to someone else, on the same trip to the USA a few years back.

There are some sites already suggesting that he may be linked to the theft of $2.5million worth of engines and transmissions from Holden's Elizabeth plant.
