I am please to annound that Clint and Robyn Ogilvy have confirmed that they are to show their freshly rebuild pink FRONT/BACK burnout LC Torana. It has just had a complete freshen, including a new chassis, suicide doors, and air brushed paint. It looks AMAZING!!!

See it at the CARLINE Mufflers Latrobe Valley Street Machine Show, Febuary 3rd, Traralgon Showgrounds. Gold coin donation for entry. Proceeds to the Royal Childrens Hospital Good Friday Appeal.

Ya reckon? It's all personal choice I agree but I hate that paint scheme.
The rest is a credit to top workmanship.

Yeah, My mate from Speedworks built the motor for it. The thing is an animal! And Clint is a top bloke too!

It's long been a legendary burnout car but to score 2nd in the masters and land a place in the elite hall is a real credit to Clint, Robyn and everyone else who had a hand in the rebuild. It was unreal to see the thing in the top 60 still stinking of burnout smoke! That's a real car I reckon!

I was chatting to Clint at the nats and he said some young guys were checking it out saying "Hey that's that ex-burnout car" early in the show and they asked him when he was going to start skidding it again. He just grinned and said "Tomorrow morning!" :clap: :spoton:

Thanks mate, we are hoping for a big turnout so we can hand over a huge cheque to the Royal Childrens Hospital.

What a ripper day. big thanks to all that came along, both spectators and entrants. The Royal Childrens Hospital will be getting a decent cheque this year!

Over 215 cars, 1000's of spectators, and everyone I spoke to on the day told me how much they enjoyed themselves! It makes it worthwhile organising when I get my fellow petrol heads telling how much they appreciate the day!
