It would've been auctioned off while old mate was bent over in the big house. Still, he knew what he was doing as it is a very nice car.

Not my cup of tea ..... at all!
Huge effort though but I think there is always a point where the more work and thought that goes into these type of builds ..... they just start going backwards Wonder if everyone got all there bits back ......... | [/url] |

one of my favorite cars, when it was first done, it was unique in the interior department, and in its green form when one higher...
but its a shame that the green paintjob was paid for with dirty money...

Hillier brothers built it up as an orange coupe, Jail Bait bought it and then had it rebuilt by Sefton Smash? and won Summernats with it, turned out he had been flogging and rebirthing cars and bikes around wollongong.

Nice build, just a shame about the colour/previous owner combination. I'm surprised it's still in one piece
