 Well its finally taking shape. My modified FC with injected 308, trimatic, lh torana front end, VS commodore rear end with trailing arms, 18 inch wheels with VT front brakes and the list goes on. The object of this build is to use ALL HOLDEN parts. There are too many photos of the ground up build but i willput more on when the body has been painted

Hey Brett.
That looks trick.
A lot of thought has gone into those mods.
Well done. I will be keeping an eye out for the updates.

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

Pedro as requested some photo's of the front end conversion. Obviously there are far more with dimensions but these may alter depending on the wheel/brake combinations but you can basically get an idea what needs to be done from these photo's. Thanks to everyone else for their positive comments.<center>

Have had a message that the main photo's have been deleted by photobucket although they come up on my screen. Is anyone else having the same problems. These are pictures of the chassis and engine. Regards brett

Nice way that you have done that, has the LH crossmber been narrowed or is it a standard LH crossmember?
