Hey Nes,the VH I have owned for 19 years and runs a 308-355 stroker with tuff trimatic and nine inch.Lots of fun...



thanks for the interest but I guess slightly off topic.
Hey JB,still have the exhaust,front and back windows,block and buff the front guards and bonnet,grille and front chrome and give it a good polish then drive the friggen wheels off it!

Ey Pete, if your drinking tea mate, you have more issues than the steering wheel  Cheesy not a bad looking car for the era but not my keg of beer, I'd prefer pre 76 ish cars.

hahaha guys,I'm not that into Commodores either actually but I guess after nearly 20 years it's hard to get rid of it.My first car was a HR which I sold then bought the commy as I needed something "more comfortable" at the time as I was doing 180km round trips to tafe in the early nineties.Since then all of the comfy bits are gone off the Commy like power steering and A/C.I think it's funny that now I really, really want to get back into a car which is unpredictable and far less comfy than what my commy was like back then...Can hardly wait to get the FC on the road and really DRIVE a car again.

While I'm waiting for the paint on the guards to harden up a bit I decided to start on the exhaust starting with the flange plates....










Also made some custom linkages for the twins...

Yeah Jamie Great work.

I always think any job worth doing is worth doing well,
and if I'm not happy with it I don't expect anyone else to be happy with it either.
Keep up the great work and look forward to seeing the finished article.

Cheers Stewy   Cool

If you haven't grown up by 50, you don't have to.

Very impressive work Jamie, by the time you've finished the car will be better than when it was brand new.
