Just spotted on ebay. One of 3 in Aus. Eureka style with gull-wing doors and interestingly an Alfa Romeo engine. Located in Vic.

Eagle SS (http://cars2.ebay.com.au/1969-EAGLE-SS1-1-of-3-in-Australia_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQitemZ160409287746)

I wonder how he knows there are only three in Oz? Appears to have had a few mods, the pop up headlights certainly have been replaced (not the poxy Porka round pop ups they usually have). And looks to be the original Eagle, not the later one based on the Ford chassis with the front mount donk. The bonnet for those look positively bad, and apparently the chassis is questionable at best. So good thing this one is based on the Bug chassis. I think there's a few Novas/Eagles running around with the Alfasud motor, as it's a boxer design. There's even a 'reek here in oz (think WA?) running an Alfasud engine.

Will be interesting to see it finished and in the flesh.
