Whatever you go on to do in life, try to make it look deliberate.

Hate to be the dobber but, Chucks history lesson was taken directly from the Kwaks owners club website. It just happens to have a copywrite on it too. But for any of you that want more of the same go here for the original and more. http://www.thekwaksownersclub.co.uk/frameset.html" target="_blank" target="_blank and click on the gallery
Sorry Chuck, but credit were credits due.

Are you a member of the UK club ? The 'Members Information' page was last updated in May 2001, somehow I don't think they are gonna be too worried about copyright infringements....... ;)

Looks like some good info there about all the GpZ and GpX series kwakka's as well as a few others. Thanks for the link.
