    Yep looks pretty good in red, not everyones cup of tea i'm sure, but i liked it. I didn't paint it like that, a fella in Wagga did but it was still pretty cool to lap around in. The 350 in it was originally built as a backup for a sprint car so it reved out fairly hard.

    First car - HZ Sandman Flamenco Red 308 4 speed. Drove it for 4 years till the engine got tired. While waiting for a replacement engine I got a car with aircon and decided that the Sandman had done well to survive 2 attempted thefts and was better off shedded somewhere safe. Seeing all the resto threads has inspired me to drag it out soon and get a good engine in it.
    Pictured here with second Holden, HZ GTS bought without engine, currently shedded as well.


    HJ Statesman Deville, daily for a bit but cost a fortune to run.
    HZ Premier wagon 308 T400
    HZ Kingswood wagon 202 3 on tree
    WB ute 350 T400


    HQ LS coupe. In the shed. Wont be able to afford a proper resto anytime soon so it might cop a Mad Max MFP paintjob to get it on the road.


    Camira SL/E 2L auto air steer with nice warm velour seats. Awesome cheap runaround. Mate broke his leg and needed an auto so I sold it to him.
    VH SL/E got for running gear. Stroker capacity depends who you are. A bogan will say 355, I believe Byron say's 350. Also has a nice tough 5 speed and haven't checked the diff yet

    EH ute. Rusty, found under a tree.
    EJ sedan. Rusty, free from mates in-laws farm.
    HD Holden. Drove it till the rego ran out. That was right in the middle of the drought breaking rain and drum brakes on a rainy morning with no real demister to speak of wasn't much fun.

    Still have everything except the Camira.
