Yes we are going to sledge hammer those 12 slotters to avoid reuse on another Torana :-)

The standard wheels and caps came with the car. also its only got 158kms on clock. its got holden service history up to about 60k and its even got the original sales receipt so we could match the engine to the car. My old man could not believe how untouched this thing is and he's very hard to impress. Uncut rear parcel shelf and working am radio with knobs.

Yeah it's my late grandpa's my dad handed down it to me last year.

here's the engine bay

Picture of my Uc,s a green and rare grey hatch with grey interior.Has anyone seen another like it.

C'mon now Col, dont be all humble and try to hide the awesomeness of your fleet by placing the pictures upside down. I know what you are doing, if folk cant see the true beauty, there will be more UC's for you and Bruce to buy.

And you forgot to mention the Green Machine is a multi trophy winner, has a cameo appearance in Torana Tough and most importantly, ferried myself and my best man to the most important event of my life !!!

Sorry Billy dont own any magical UCs lol but heres the hatch i used to own.

Was an ok shell but door were rusty and very hard to find replacement ones, sold car to mate and swapped a 5L motor with my uncle for this one.

Does not look flash but i still have a spare inj 5L supra 5 speed and also a LH/LX sedan shell which will converted front and rear to LX. All parts for the car are there mint doors/hatch windows seats ect just stored in shed so they dont get damaged. Not going to be done for a while thou as im doing double house repayments atm and still have to finish my LX sedan.

I sold my UC 4 door to make room for an LX hatch. I didn't manage to find an LX hatch at a reasonable price so I bought this instead.

I've given it a quick polish & replaced the 5 spoke Dragways with the Dragway Indys, but very little else at this stage.

It looks real clean and its the best colour, i think red just suits the uc better than any other colour

Thanks for the kind words but unfortunately it's not as clean in the flesh, yet

I like the colour as well & the chamois interior goes really well with it

Coming back from Canada at the end of April for a month. Doesn't look like I'll be moving back to Australia anytime in the near future, so I've made the difficult decision to sell my UC SL/T.

It's been my baby for a few months shy of 34 years, but I've got to be realistic and accept that I won't have the time to do a restoration before it gets hit by body rot.
