Do you need to have RWC for rego each year in NSW, or was it for sale ?
I noticed there was even an Armaguard escort, hehe.

That's sweet G.
Will the SS end up as straight as that one?!!
Liked the slight differences, like total black headlight bezels. (no chrome edge)
Also the matching colour panel covering the drop tank.
No over riders?
Also thought A9X had no chrome around windows?
Is it me or is that glass just perfect?! Can you polish glass to get it to come
up looking like that?
What a gorgeous car. Lucky bugger.

I might be comming up your way for rego G.
We can park the two yella's together.
Cheers, Leakey

A9X don't have overriders, this car has the wrong bumpers shouldn't have the rubber strip. Chrome round the windows on a hatch is correct, this is the reason the black is painted different to a sedan. Maderia red chamois trim, only 3 made from memory and one sedan. I know where all the hatches are and yes that one in QLD, the third one was originally owned by Bob Forbes.That's sweet G.

true, check out the add in the performance & prestige sep 91It was for sale in 1991 for $25,000 in prestige and performance cars
add
the add reads new paint and interior and motor. the owner was telling
me when he got it had a blown engine and he had to paint it and replace
the interior. the interior is not ss it looks like uc sle its a shame. he does
want to put some new ss trim back into the car and he gets some money.
i will have to ask he why he was selling it and why it didnt sell back in 1991.
maybe the wrong trim and the price tag of 25 grand had something to do
with it.

Maybe the reccession, ( refered to in the red a9x sedans add) had a lot to do with prices back then, I think interest rates where high and most people would have been struggling to pay the morgage.

1990-91 was a hell ride. Dont forget that 25K was still 1/4 of the price of the average house. Nice hatch all the same.

There was very limited interest in Torana's in 1991. Mate had his just about everything brand new SS for sale at that time. Didn't end up selling it till '93.
The 304 was more to do with the Group A International regulations rather than anything else. Technically the 308 was over 5.0 Litres.
