Cheers Craig.

It is a hard ask doing a brown torana.

Still getting ragged on by my brother.

Steve this is looking better than a new one, well done to all involved.

How is the front ride height going? Sorted?

[LJGTR6]

Thanks Michael. Sorry for the late response.

Been away working interstate for 2 weeks.

Got to see the old girl. Also found out the shocks are Koni and the springs are Pedders.

To my surprise it really has dropped down in the front. I think the pictures I had before

where when it was just dropped after being on jacks for a few weeks.

Here's a few more higher resolution pics.

Rear spoiler on.

Like the work they did here and on the doors where it has been cut.

fun stick.

Thanks again guys. Gerry you nailed it.

It is about doing the car justice.

I feel like I owe it to the car.

I am so glad I never parted with it.

 

Grant, G&S services. yes what a classic.

Local brothers in the mower shop doing pink slips.

My old man used to tell me to go there because he

did not check a great deal. Never got pulled up on anything.

 

hoping to bring it home about 12th of may.

Dragged out my cheviot center caps and gave them a clean up.

Shame is i have 3 of the originals and 2 different types.

Not sure how rare these are?

 

Guess i should start looking for the missing one.

anyone got a spare floating around?

I think i have some of these caps somewhere, just spent two hours going through car parts, still have two garden sheds to go! Found alot of stuff i had forgotten about, Torana Gold! Lol

Let me know if you do kev. I would be interested in buying them from you.

[LJGTR6]

Nice colour, what size rims, offset and tyre profile are you running?

Sent from my SM-P600 using Tapatalk

Luke,

Rims are cheviot 8 x 14's

not sure on offsets etc. They are not anything special though. I have just had them

as long as i can remember. They used to be on a Barbados green SL/R that used to get

around the Bass Hill area with "KERMIT" number plates.

 

Tyres are Bridgestone 245/50/14 on front and 265/50/14 on rear.

Hi, I presume the car is now home, do you have photos of the finished car and what are your thoughts on the workmanship.

[LJGTR6]

Nearly home.

 

They started her up the other day so essentially all it needs is a small drive

to check brakes etc and a wheel alignment.

 

At the moment I am more than happy with what they have done.

 

I have not crawled over it but have seen it in person more than once and am more than happy with

what Rusty and the boys have done with it.

 

I am hoping they don't find too much wrong with it.

 

so close now.

 

steve
