The Car or Thing that gets you Inspired Thread

[Jarred]

I heard the hlden AWD system started to get a bit iffy over like 300 KWs... Read in motor or something a while back (ages ago really)

Looks pretty mean thou, just not old school enough!

[99gti]

nah im not going to shoot you down in flames, they should have made more of those! i wonder what strengthening you'd have to do to the AWD system and how much power they can take?

one of my favourite HSV's of all time.... i love my Aussie muscle

This thing has had more work done to it than MJ has had nose jobs! Lots!!!

I'll jump on the Escort band wagon.

This was my 77 Mk2 Zacspeed copy.

And you sold it because??

[99gti]

And you sold it because??

My thoughts exactly!

[Oneofthegreats]

And you sold it because??

I wanted to put a 13B extend port rotary into it, but it the body had started to crack around the sill's & wheel arches.

I sold it, & banked the coin & keep on driving the beater.

Also my beater flogged the hell out of it. Didn't make sense having a mint show car that could be eaten by your crappy work hack!!!

The bloke that brought it off me fitted a turbo'd cossy engine from what I heard & that wasn't the half of it. It had the works.

The crack's got bigger too!

argh! stop making me want to buy an escort!

[Preen59]

Ok thats fair enough.

Do you have a thing for Overgrown alternators?

[Preen59]

argh! stop making me want to buy an escort!

Do it.

Buy mitch's.

He only wants 30.

[Jarred]

ahhh this is better....

[QUOTE=99gti;163818]Ok - so I'll wait to be shot down in flames but I know there are a few amongst us who do still have a bit of love for some Aussie muscle. If I had to have an Aussie car - this would be it.[QUOTE]

Not going to shoot you down either Neil - heres my other drive (the family car!)

375KW and an unbelievably nice sound.

I do like the Coupe 4 as well (I'm one of those rare beasts that admire both FPV and HSV, I'm not one-eyed)

Very nice Gareth! My mate got a GT for his 21st (his whole family are Ford nuts, and no, he's not spoiled either) and it absolutely rips!

Just a pic and a couple of videos I have taken while I was at work.
Ok, so they aren't cars, but I love them anyway!! Its the ultimate Big Boys Toy!!! Sorry if the videos are a bit on the grainy side.

I'm guessing you're in the army then?

My mate is a tank driver up in Darwin. He owns a couple of rotaries.
