Purchased this in April for my wife
One owner, 152000 miles, original engine and hydramatic, paint and interior trim. Will need a respray in the future but not bad for a 48 year old car
Now has HR front end with HT stubs and torana calipers and was just passed by pits this morning, all nice and legal now.

That looks sweet there mate, have to get that out on one of the AustMOD, J, OLSKULE cruise's!

nice set of Chrome smoothies would go a treat on that (and maybe if it was an FB :D )

hows the body and engine bay? interior looks to be mint.

nice score!

Cheers

Thanks Nomad
Now paired with my FB
The body is really nice, very little rust, still all original underneath and has never had a repaint, the engine has had one rebuild and painted black and I've got some original grey paint for it when time allows for a dulux rebuild.
Now has 14" HT steelies to clear front discs with chrome smooth hubcabs

Sweet!

can't be tempted to swap the black 'grey' motor out for a little Red action? you can paint the red grey just to annoy craig!

That's such a nice colour combination. The interior colour screams at you :shock:
