mudflaps......... with reflectors.......

Ha ha - reminds me of something!!!

Drop down and have a look at the HZ mate - venetians, rallys, SBC, cowl scoop....

Wish I had the Shafiroff.

Definitely going to keep my eye on this one. I think its going to be hard to keep that sleeper look when you start it up. At least people will know your coming and get out of your way lol

I know it won't work on Hq but there is a hj up here it's cream colored looks stock as and has only a mild v8 sound normal driving has plates something like ohj253 so looks like a one owner 253 hj kings with original wheels and Venetian. The only way you can pick it's something different is the bonnet middle the part on the hj bonnet that is slightly raised has Vern raise an extra 1-2 inches so it looks like factory but allowed some extra clearance.. And under the bonnet is a 572 cube big block very impressive sleeper.

Steel rims
plaid blanket on the blanket seat and those bead seat covers that taxi drivers used to love

i think we all know it will end up tubbed with a 4 link........

just on a side note to LX406, what ever happened to your torana?

A bloke in Sydney bought it as a roller, and tore it apart and it never saw the road again. He cut the floor out of it with anticipation of putting a 3/4 chassis in it, but he sold it off before he finished it. Such as waste I reckon. It was a perfectly good, neat hatchback.

I dont think so K383. I wont have the budget to do stuff like that, plus big huge wheels don't do if for me. Mini tubs max.
