never made the racing......well in this car........but i had set a date and got it down to Valla at 9pm on the Saturday.

all seems a bit silly in heinysight 🙄

car is VERY noticably more conformed on the road compared to the other one, so happy days.....can't wait for rego 8 months with out that roar and constant gear changes was long enough.

i had a grin from ear to ear before i got out of 3rd gear.

oh shucks..... thanx guys.

hope it serves as some sort of inspiration to others attempting to finish of big projects. i think it displays that once the ground work is set, the finish line is just a few weeks of hard work away, right as you think it will never happen.

now can't wait to get it out and about, toss the keys to a few punters as per usual to share the fun.

bit more fiddling with brakes. sort some nice over rider bumpers for it again.......and a few ratty accessory's to be hung yet 😎........amazes me how different cars call for different touches and certainly enjoying the process of it too.

getting tempted to wash it tho 🤪

I just found his. You've been busy. I had no idea the green machine was decomissioned. Where are you at with it now?

Come to the Nationals!

I love the rat look. I hope you haven't washed it yet.

yeah still got it. got it out a few times to do a bit, but get easily distracted.......👍



doors and rear guards have been with panel beaters way too long and are pretty much the only hold up 😬

no need for a buff JVL, already gave it one, with a bottle of Jiff and a green kitchen scourer 😂.....worked a treat..

I could come to the nationals........fuel bill would be miniscule, the drive peaceful and quiet.........most certainly warm and toasty with the heaters open........Mmmmmm stocka's rule 🤘
