ALBERT CARTER’S JGTC INSPIRED WORK OF ART –
We’ve followed this guy on Instagram for some time, and was top of our dream feature list. Inspired by the 90s JGTC race series this MR2 is nothing short of a work of art from whichever angle you take in its splendour. This MR2 would’nt look out of place on the race Circuit grid. What’s more impressive is that pretty much the entire car was hand-built by Albert himself.
RARE SPECIES
The SW20 Spider is indeed a rare species with less than 100 built by Technocraft, with soft top, and distinctive raised engine lid. AZKA YUQATAMMA has gone one stage further and made his Spider a truly one off with unique styling mods and stance.
