    I found this.

    I have been driving past this for the last six months as it parked on the side of the road as a promosional tool for a Car auto electronics retailer.
    I decided to stop in to this shop and have a look at some reversing cameras.
    On the way out I was looking at the 40 or so huge speakers mounted inside it and the sound outlets at the rear with hydraulic openings etc.
    It is full of amps and very thick speaker wire etc.....can destroy and high rise building from 20 ks away with sound waves alone etc......really full on stuff.
    I was just walking away when I noticed the twin leaf parabolics with the corner of my eye.
    I looked underneath.....I be stuffed, its a 101.
    I looked harder and I still has Judge Dredd web site written on it.
    It is a LHD chassis.
    I will get more pics at a later date.

    IIRC most of them were LHD, and only one was ever fitted out as a complete unit, most were simply the shell

    This one was imported buy the owners of this car electronics retailer.
    It had the motor/transmission in it , but was removed to cut shipping costs and weight.
    I didnt get too much time to have a close look at it.
    I do know the chassis is rust free and the standard steering gear, shocks, diffs etc are still there.
    The driving position looks to be a nightmare.
    They tow/push it round.
    It has the fuel tank(non standard replacement) in place, fuel filter ect.
    All the speakers and amps are English origin and a swag of 175amp anderson plugs hanging down from the front of it to power up the on board amps.......I have seen some really big dooff dooff machines at shows etc, but this thing eats the lot.
    At the rear not in pic is a sound outlet working with the forest of woofers inside about 3 ft in dia......giving a effect of a woofer that size.
    I will post more when i know more.

    It gets moved around abit and now is at Nowra.....yes its the same one.
    I found abit of information about it on the web from over seas.





    It cost Vibe car audio in Uk 75000 pound to build.
    Award wining and the most extreme ICE demo vehicle in the UK if not the world. ??????
    capable of earth shattering bass.
    It was driveable, but the doors kept falling off and the vehicle was too heavy with all the electronics and speakers in it.
    So the engine /transmission was removed and it was towed to shows after that .
