ive owned her for 5 years, havent seen her for the last 3 due to moving to NSW. last weekend i met a mate in dorrigo and towed her back via glouster.
she's a 1964 manual EH special sedan with a list of prem options.
body is amazingly straight, no door skins poped, orignal floor pans panels and paint, morwels grey and fowlers roof.

motor has been replaced with a 179, that soon will be replaced with a 200hp 202 i built for my speedway sedan.
plans are VR commadore running gear, rack and pinion steering a decompression plate and a T04 garret turbo.

should be good for 400+HP and at least 11sec quarters.:twisted:

This is after I sprayed it, but before I cut it. I had to sell it because I had no room to store it, custom metallic green with fowlers ivory roof, sort of regret selling it, but not half as much as my Charger :(
