GU 6643 I'm no expert on the GE Stadium (nor much else come to think of it!) but the few Stadium photos I have seen all show doors hinged at the front. Is this a one off or not a Stadium? Rob

Austin My interpretation is that the rear car, GC 8389 "160" is the Cup as it appears to have the split windscreen and earlier radiator. The front car, GU 6643 "158" has the one piece screen seen in the other Stadium photos, the later radiator and also the doors seem to be larger than that usually found on a Cup but hinged the opposite way to the other Stadiums.
