Names Andrew, 21 and From Mackay

1st car was a VH with a 202.. was a piece of shit which i thought was the best car on he road at the time.. came to a very abrupt end when i hit a parked car doing 90..

2nd car was a fulli sik (sarcasm) VK wagon.. i drowned in a flood.

3rd car was a suzuki swift.. 3 banger.. had so much fun in the car. sold it

4th car was a VH with a 253 with an M21 and welded diff.. did sik skids.. then a drunk driver hit me head on..

5th car was a VH SL/E mild 308.. trimatic with a 2500rpm converter 355 locker.. sold that

6th & 7th and current cars: my pride and joy.. my VL 5ltr Berlina. calais replica. ACL race hit, stage 4 cam.. heads ported and polished and matched.. also running a 100hp nitrous kit..

gear box is a trimatic with a stage 2 and 2700rpm converter

Diff is a standard crap open center.. going in is a VL calais turbo LSD diff with the 28 spline axles.. also coming soon is a brake upgrade.. will post a few pics once i get my bug catcher on..

and last but not least is the run around car.. a charade.. 4 banger.. so much fun.. chassis is snapped and getting plated very soon.

Current rides:
HZ Stato caprice, on the site here . Stockish but clean.
89 Camry 4-banger deluxe.... hey, a guys gotta get to work right?

Previous rides:

Mums laser, passed down to little brother, thrashed to oblivion.

Honda CB250, thrashed to oblivion, sold to an unlicenced stoner for $200.

HZ pano van. Nice interior but well rusted. Three 253 motors in this one over a few years: The origional stocker that died (was near dead when i bought it), the worked one that eventually blew a head gasket... and then we cracked the block when bolting on new y/t heads (yes i used a torque wrench), and the cheapie we got from the trader and threw in there before selling it. Found out later that block welding ain't as expensive as i thought, doh! Still got the cracked block motor sittin in the shed.

HQ sedan, little old man special, straight as with reasonable rust and perfect interior, 90,000 miles on the old 202, and at 200 bucks it was a steal. Once we got it started it ran like a dream. Only bought it cos i needed a ride while the pano engine was being built. Got the van back and me an a mate were gonna restore the HQ, took it appart but financial and other stuff got in the way (old man got sick of car bits everywhere) so we ended up selling it to a wreckers. Best money i ever spent on a car and regret selling it bigtime.

Hey how you all doing im keggie,

1st car i owned was a LC Torana:
Spent 15 grand on the 186 went real good though, NOS, 202 head rollers, very hard to keep straight when you nailed the right foot.

2nd car i still have is a HZ Statesman, spending a fortune on this thing as well, 383 stroker, Ported VN heads, Harrop single plain manifold, roller rockers, should be good for around 500 hp. Thinking about a 150hp shot NOS for this thing as well, just painted the body a dodge viper blue (very sexy)

3rd car a run around while the stato is still of the road (2 yrs so far) a VH 308 SL Commodore, done a fair few kays on this motor bout time for a rebuild,
was perfect for towing the stato around to painters, will prob keep this one as well, end up spending hard earned cash on it as well

anyway thats the lot
