No more i'm afraid. It was in a Torana magazine back in the 90's wearing black 15" V5 Simmons.
Apart from the wheels, I'm not sure if the car has changed much over the years.
Not even sure how old these new pics are, but can't be too old judging by the ROH's.

It was at the last Holden VS Ford show here in Collie.

A local who owns Coalcliff Hire here bought it. Payed big coin to.

I don't think I'd go that far, maybe if it still had the V5s...

I still reckon those wheels dont look completely right in those pictures.

They were either really well spot lit, or it had alot of post processing done in photoshop to highlight them, or its a photoshop to see how they would look before they went and fitted them.

Check your old issues of 'Street Machine'.
The car features in 2 issues.

I've always admired it.....for good reason.

Howard, Slaveman did own a very nice Black hatch but it is not this car.

I think the guy who owned it in SA was Justin or Jason?

Yes Alf! Black sux. It was not my prefered colour when I went shopping but what was available.

The black is so awesome, its hard to do a nice orange without making it look fake. I'm normally pretty good at this, but its got me.

Gives you the idea though.

Not sure if those ROH's are 'chopped or not? Its an odd photo. A really good one, but odd in photoshop.
