    Torana panelvan

    I seen this pic on facebook today. Thought I would share it. Looks tuff and looks like many hours of work put into it. What do you guys think?

    It's Photoshop. It's not a real car. Looks like more of Nigzy's work.

    If it was it'd be a Holden van with a Torana nose not a Torana van!

    I honestly think it is real. More along the lines of what hk said. I have seen a uc torana ute done a similar way

    If you really think that is real I have real good swamp land that's great for building on that I would love to sell you!

    It is 100% photoshop, just like this one.

    If you want to see more do an Internet search for: "Nigzy's Photoshop Photochops"

    I do though remember the real UC Torana Ute made from a Hatchback.

    Its nice to dream somebody built a car like that once, it inspires creativity.. lol, but, nope.

    Have a look at the front downwards line of the passenger door. See how it pretty much meets the corner of the windscreen/A pillar? On LH - LX Torana, the door line is forward about 2- 3 inches (or more) in front of the A pillar, on HQ-HZ its even further forward, this forms a space which the door hinges are housed in.

    You'd need pretty compact hinges, its definately photo art. But that doesnt stop you redesigning the door frame and hinges in your sleep (pleasant dreams!).

    Personally I reckon the problem with a Torana panelvan is there not enough room for the telly!!

    The blue one is (obviously) a photoshop, but isn't Nigzy's. I saw it the other day on facebook, but can't remember who it was credited to. Wasn't Nigzy though.

    I reckon a Torana van could have worked though, some of Nigzy's ones look good.

    It's very obvious it isn't real (blue version). The really obvious spot is the roof spoiler. Angles are all wrong and the edges are furry.
    Sure a Torana Van would have worked I agree. But it would have been Torana sized. The Gemini came along and killed that thought though.
