That's sensational! The modern seats with headrests removed look great too.
I know a lot of people don't like slots, but I do. Especially those ones....ALL the dish!
Nice find Dude.

My word that rear three quarter is the stuff dreams are made of. The whole thing is fabulous, and probably looks just as good if not better with the front pumped up a little at driving height - with the wheel/arch relationship a bit more even front to rear.

Very nice, although I'm not too keen on the grille. I think I need to see a better shot from further away.
I absolutely love the fact that it's manual, most of these type of cars get built with auto transmissions.
I would love a drive to see what the ride is like on airbags. Mine was quite comfy even on leaf springs.

A lot of the aussie built cars seem to have large diameter blingy rims with low profile tyres , this however is perfect .

You've been telling me you were a genius since you were seventeen ... in all the time I've known you I still don't know what you mean !

There seem to be some great wheels over there that you don't see over here. Rust & Bones being the prime example.

Nice, does look like a deliberately 'classic' build with the small dia. slotmags, chromey engine & carbs/air filters out the bonnet.
Extended sills work well & integrate the side pipes better without wrecking the sill structure. Sad they lost the slightly flat topped wheel arches so they argue with the body crease a little, but very glad they did not disturb that crease in doing so.
Will admit I like HQ frt, vents & bumpers best.. & though decidedly un-70's always thought flat '85 Corvette wheels work so well with the cars crisp lines & massive HX/HZ bumpers.

Yes it is one of the two they brought over, no sofa now, but a few surfboards occasionally get chucked in the back...   |
