Nice colour,  looks great for a daily.

Paint work looks amazing mate. You’ve done a great job on it.

Such an awesome looking car mate.

That engine bay looks amazing.

Looks good, now the fun part of putting it back together with out scratching it. Lol.

I sell Dayco ones all the time and have never had that issue. Even used them myself.

Love the look of it mate, nice work. I agree with the others, keep the Aussie V8 in it. Especially the 253, they are a great motor and always get told that they gave the 308’s a run for their money too. My dad has a HQ but just a 6cyl, so I have a soft spot for them.

Love the look of a Stato dash. One thing I wouldn’t mind doing one day. They look so much better than the Commodore one.

Replaced my dads VE with a Century standard replacement and hasn’t missed a beat. But most batteries these days are good, only thing different may be CCA and warranty periods.
