Sure has mate, hopefully it will make it to Toranafest one year.

After watching the build, it would be good to see it in the flesh.

Well it's good to have rego on the car and be able to drive it. It's had its wheel alignment and am hoping the fuel regulator problems are sorted.

Finally got the rear seat back, so that's been refitted along with the other front seat. I really like the look of the interior. Looks nice and stock, but a little bit different. I think the outside has the same appeal.

Well I'm just going to bombard this thread with a heap of pics I took yesterday, except for the first pic which was taken when about to tow the car down to rego. mmmmm......rego : )

I say "letting" because it wasn't for free. (I'm not that good of a brother) He could have paid someone else to do it, but I'm glad I got to.

Dont think your brother deserves the car.
First he thinks its a Charger, then a Toyota.
Excellent work.
Been many a pleasurable hour watching the progress on this car.
