The yellow car is a Cool car. What's the difference between a 'H' plate and a 'CH' plate?
Here's another cool car. Looks like a vic club member.

Hi Alex,
    H is for Historic CH is for Classic Historic. The reason for the change is Vic Roads ran out of numbers and had to drop the C and start again. This wagon will be at the Nat's.
Catch you in a few weeks
 Tony.

Was about to ask the same question regards the intercooler.I saw this car on Grunt Files I think,but missed the part about what the intercooler actually does.Obviously nothing to do with the super charger.All I remember was it was ridiculously low....

TTV6FC it has every thing to do with the Super Charger if it is a Liquid to air it does the same as an air to air intercooler when there is no room or out of place in a classic car,  for the air to air in front of the car  it has a small radiator and a pump to circulate the liquid from the intercooler to it's radiator to produce a drop in temp to the compressed air fuel mixture before it enters the engine to create a denser charge .......FC427.........
