Pretty sure that one was called Hunchback. I don't think the can-do attitude has disappeared. People are probably just less willing to cut up a Monaro and a Panelvan in order to realise their vision.

And that twin engined sucker would be BloBack.
ive got that street machine was my uncles, old mate put a heap of work into getting it how he wanted it, but should have taken the 253 out, could have turned the bonnet into a boot, the spray job was pretty cool, how it fadded, one question what is blow bak or what ever the sticker kit he had on it
Bloback indeed....what a beast.....iirc, the tub was widened to fit the engine in?!?!?! Mooncaps can go.....but that car kicks all kinds of arse in my eyes!!!
Agreed, people just arent chopping like they used to.......but this EH is extremely well done

thats a sick panno or is it one of those delivery van thingos? whatever it is its cool
I cant remember if it was a wagon or a pano.....but it was chopped and channeled in every way possible......and very tastefully done too!!![]()
I saw blo-bac at some Street Machine Nats way back (89?). I know I was still wearing ice-wash denim and pastel Tee-shirts... Some pieces of work in that ute! You could stand and look at it for ages and just see new shapes and features and add-ons. It was a vehicle that looked as good in the flesh as it did in the magazine. The paint was wild. Deep and mirror-like with ghost writing through it. A big trend around then was crazy graphics like paint splatter and heart-beat lines and jelly-beans (?...was that Myers mustang ?). But BBac came out big black and mean in a different way. I think it got a paint job later to be silver and it lost a motor. But the utes have always done well amongst the Street Machiners. Like Burchers purple WB (from Orange NSW) and that tidy clean light blue number (HZ?) in the late 90's. Have any pannos been up there in the Street Machine awards ?? I can't think of any.
But the 'over the top because i can' award goes to....
Rod Hadfield....27litres of insanity!!!
