Not a Hatch but certainly the best on the day :spoton: AND how if possible could it look better it it was a Hatch :spoton:

AND was probably the SS badge and my oldtimers disease BUT hey, you can't go pass this one for being the best :clap:

was in victoria heath, but when howard moved to NSW he couldnt be bothered going through the hoo ha to get it regoed (I think that was the story)

So now its his track car!

That UC hatch Chris posted looks a bit funny for some reason, could be the poxy side indicators, but something looks funny.

Yeah I noticed the Vic plates (knew he used to be local), but thought he may have kept it registered in the same state somehow (to keep the plates and engineer certification). Does it actually see the track? I had no idea it was actually raced or anything. I just assumed he cruised it out to the odd show until I realised it had slicks and got very confused.

I was thinking the same mate

It says in the add its been sprayed original factory atlantis blue colour, but it seems a lot lighter shade of grey/blue to me.. maybe thats why it looks odd

Best hatch that left an impression was watching THUNDER cruised down northbourne ave at summernats back in the early 90's I think,it stood out from the rest of the cars being painted in ascot green.EZY09S,I once saw your car race at wsid...she was ultraclean & really moved mate.

HERE is Thunder these days, looks ok from a distance but very unloved, all the crome is cracked and rusted, the paint is very rough and the bog showing through, plus it had a cracked block

Hopefully will look similar to Nathans yellow hatch when it gets resprayed back to yellow (original colour) later this year.
