@sideways media. Do you have any more info on the Chev Firenza? It was a special limited production car here in South Africa with a 302 v8. I saw the SAL ( suid afrikaanse lugdiens) SAA ( South African airways) decals on the wing. They are very rare and sought after cars. Would like to know some more about this specific car if any info available. Firenza Can Am, pretty cool name for an outrageous car from the 70’s.
@@snapper8v Is it the same car Jimmy Mc Rae has driven here in Ireland @ Killarney Historic Rally? Also do you happen to know what type of engine is in the Mk1 with the Rothmans livery? Great video by the way!!
@@mk1mexico562 yes, it's the same car. The owner, Mick Straffird, hired it to Jimmy although Jimmy always says that it's his car.... :-). The engines in the Rothmans MK1 and 205 T16 replica are Hyabusa engines......
That Chevy is such an American idea of a rally car... Specialist: we need rather small and lightweight bodyshell American: Take this one S: It is too big! A: We don't have anything smaller S: Allright then, we need a powerful engine A: Just put there V8 S: But we need something light, that will provide good weight distribution an limit the pendulum of the car... A: Put there a V8! We are building a car, not a lawnmover! S: Allright. This bodyshell needs some more downforce A: Put that sheet of metal on a top of it, the CART racing cars do. S: But this is just a piece of roof from this barrack... A: WTF do you want me to do? To steal a wing from Boeing 747!?
That is NOT American. Was designed/built/raced in South Africa. Was called the Chevvy Can-Am or "little chev". Built to challenge the V8 Basil Green Capri Perana.
