Be interesting to see.  Its probably not as iconic as his Toranas and Commodore race cars.  I wonder who owns the 78 Bathurst winning Hatchback, that would surely have to set THE record if it ever came up?

Yes we all had the pleasure of watching the IJ’s Lexcen build, just amazing.  I actually think pound for pound CP holds its own for some very cool and diverse Commodore based build threads

How cool is this!!

Just remeber this as a family forum…

Nice Charger though!

Shotgun a ride if you bring it to SA…

Thank you, I haven’t ever seen an AWD set up in person.  Great to be able to follow along but also understand it all too.

Nice, more pics buddy!

Any progress is good progress!!  I am no welder, but for me its def something you have to be in the right mood for.

Thought I would bring the old girl into work, which is about a 45 minute drive.  Ran like a dream even in the heavy traffic.  Only downside was it was full-on sunshine when I left home, and then it turned a little foggy/misty.  Eng temps rock-solid, oil pressure great bla bla, zero issues.  Happy days!!
