    Hi I'm just new to the forum and here is my sandman.

    I HATE the wheels and am I right in saying it shouldn't have a GTS badge on grille or an HSV badge on the steering wheel?

    Love the way it all works together and the name across the tail gate. You can almost here the "I can make you famous" line from the movie looking at the RHS!

    What finish have you put the gutter in? Looks (almost) like a chrome trim (or is it paint?) and it breaks it up nicely.

    Like the custom console and inserts too (showing my age I guess... hehe). You're right about the HSV and GTS badges. HSV started with Tom Wlkinshaw in the late 80's and they had nothing to do with the H and W series and the GTS was associated with the sedan in that era.

    That said, if you check on ebay.com.au (search for terms such as HX Holden etc) and rarespares.net.au there are plenty of Oz based aftermarket sellers who can help you get the bits to keep her rolling. Contact the member here ozbox and he can also help and is an invaluable source of spares and info too.

    Love your work there.

    Regards,

    Dave.
