I am the second owner
was bought in the first week of 2005 totally stock from an old lady in mandurah for a large sum of one thousand seven hundred dollars
only mod on it was a two channel alpine tape deck (suited me perfect cause i was putting in an alpine four channel CD/MP3 player)
Original specs are
Engine: 308
Gearbox: th400
Diff: salsbury 2:7 ratio open
suspention:standard
wheels: 14" steelies with hubcaps
these are the first photos i took
outside
Note 17" rims with 235 federals
inside
note the mpf armrest / speaker pods i made
and sheep skins
I then upgraded the suspention with lowered springs and Koni shocks.
Put a bit of a stereo in and then looked into getting the interior retrimmed
first was the door trims. but the seets took a little while so i put black seat covers on,
new pastel shelf came next
and then there was some chrome added to the engine bay, and a edelbrock performer manifold
and along with a quick respray it entered Motivation 2007
couple of months later came the seats
later that year i aquired some brocky b class heads, they had a 2mm head shave. so there was a fair few mods to do to the intake, but because of the raised compression number 8 cylinder went pop.. there was no reading on a compression test.
so in comes the 350 vortec crate engine
then came a strip down for a new respray and rust repair
mmm green pearl
mmmm flames
and can someone say shiny?
and a nice new head lining
next was the nice new boot install
then Motivation 2010
after motivation there was a few paint issues.. they had to fix a run and a rust spot. but when they put the pearl on it was a different colour.
so they had to repaint the whole car
that comes upto date as she is now. accept for the new center concole i am making

I love me old Holdens, but I try to keep that a secret

that explains that time that you where lost. we are talking about the time you where driving your girlfriends car.
or is your girl friends car that much nicer to yours that you wanted to drive that more too?
