Hi Bullit, awesome car its a credit to you and your son. You probably know and just like it but I don't think you're SS should have that Torana decal on the nose cone, cheers Aaron.


Cheers mate yeah I know about the decal but it's what me and my son want I think it adds a touch of class....

Count the rivets Daryl, don't want to miss any....

This car is going to make me jealous!! I looked at a white 5 litre SS back in the 90's to buy, didn't go ahead with it, went for a VK commodore instead.
Biggest regret not buying that car.

Hi mate,been gathering parts for a HD van i scored from the scrap metal yard a few years back,got most parts now,but all the hard work is to come,lol.Probably would be smarter to restore the more valuable car,but need a change.

 

 

Not sure about the fest yet,would really enjoy to catch up with ya,will be watching this thread as this SS will be awesome,i remember being on Parramatta road when i was 16,when these hatchbacks were in the car yards,i was in love with a red SS hatch,and have always wanted one,we had an orange colour SS hatch, but i was not that keen on the colour.The white looks fantastic.
