The story behind the build is best explained in this article by Rens Adams at Wangan Warriors: www.wanganwarriors.com/honda-d...
"Many thanks go out to Bennie’s mother who allowed him to use the garage for the project and making a complete mess every once in a while. Bennie would also like to thank the people at Kronenburg Autosport for letting him use a lot of equipment. Bennie also appreciates his mothers partner Edward for putting so much effort in getting the Del Sol certified and street legal."
