Project 2 will be under CVS rego with NSW club I'm hoping. So no, Blacky, plates are gone. Easy enough to get them though.

Re: Wilma FB project
Nah, just do a search on My Plates and order the numbers and letters you want and the style. $120 a year to keep them I think.- maybe one-off not sure.

Re: Wilma FB project
I have purchased “Wilma” and am SO looking forward to picking it up in a week or so.
Had an EH which I’ve just sold, plus a mint LJ XU-1 Torana replica which my wife normally drives.

Re: Wilma FB project
Good on you Ed. Hope you and your wife get many years of driving pleasure from her. A good rig if I say so myself!

Re: Wilma FB project
Lucky boy Ed. I reckon you can be confident of reliable motoring. Brett did a thorough rebuild. Look forward to see what you are doing with her, even if it is just driving.
Cheers,
