I've mentioned it a couple of times, and my avatar is a pic of it, so here it is!! This is my Torana!

It's a UC (the last model of Torana ever made). Its the last of the last too, being built in 1980. Originally a dirty old Starfire 4cyl, it then was upgraded to a 202 red motor, then I got jack of the wheezey motor and built a worked 179 red motor from an EH. It wasnt the gruntiest engine (made nearly 200HP), but it was enough to take it down the 1/4 in a nice 14.7sec at about 95mph.

Then I got jack of the 6cyl again, and now it's got a 450HP 383 Chev, T700 auto with 3000rpm stall converter and a 9" diff!

Here's the pics! Hope you like!!
