Don't bother reading page 36, whoever Phil Anders thinks he is, well you know what they say about opinions

I got sick of buying these mags. The last few seem to have the same guys cars all the time. They are beautiful cars, but once is enough. Mark Apap is the guy im thinking of.
Again great cars, but I don't like shelling out my hard earnt for the same feature cars

Seems to me for the last few years with all of these magazines, if it's in them it must be true. Started to lose interest

Cheers.

Its not the best since Oastler left but he may have been running out of storys and jumped ship, still a good read thou.

Theres plenty of other Group C/A cars they could cover and i wish they would show more on readers rides or projects in the Build.

Saying that i still buy every issue as i stopped buying Street Machine as they cover show cars not Street cars.

Still always itching to get next issue to have a gander and will get it asap.

I wish my Son would take an interest, he's just turned 18 with none.... I envy you having that in common with your boy... Another great example of Torana's bringing families together...

It's not been the same since Mark left, he was a genuine enthusiast and was careful about what went into the magazine. Unfortunately what's happened is as interest grew in these cars, questionable cars come out and then it becomes political and you have to deal with a lot of dramas. Probably the most notable being the Brock VK big banger. Just Remember once it's in print it must be true

I agree Eyepeeler, a well deserved tribute to the best guy in the bussines, cars look great Outer, you should be very proud, enjoy mate, - the L34 Legend, lives on, this article should make people really understand what these sometimes forgotten Holden muscle cars are all about...... Built with one purpose.... TO RACE!!.

You keep swapping out your body bits for engineered parts and we will need to call you Steve Austin.

We would have asked the taxi owners to do all the school runs, but with the old high tech bango diff we feared the kids would be waiting a  hell of a while at the bus stop !!

Touch wood never broken a diff or axle yet in 43 years of driving but then i dont drive on the road with sticky slicks lifting wheels at full throttle and dumping down wheel with 380hp grabbing for traction so maybe i,m not normal. (just an observation)
