Projects
1974
LH Torana
This
meek little project was 12 years in the building. Resurrected
from a bad front end collision, in which the body wasn't
in too bad a shape at all.
It
boasts a highly developed 202 cubic inch motor with
a VL 4 speed automatic transmission and lock up torque
converter (the bell housing was grafted and engineered
in house).
Roller
rockers, extractors, blue printed engine, a mild solid
can and lifters with other benefits produce a comfortable
23 m.p.i city driving and an affordable 32 m.p.i highway
cycle.
Final
cost at a total of $16500 (which is quite affordable
for a new car).

XP
Falcon
A
fine restoration of a classic 1966 falcon coupe. The
original 6 cylinder 170 cubic inch heart was replaced
with a mild 302 winsdor V8. Keeping the theme automatic
(of course) the three speed borg warner was exchanged
to an industrial C4 three speed with a 2,200 stall torque
connector.
All
of the interior and exterior colours are original, including
rims and tyres. We even went to the trouble of keeping
it column shift with the original shifter.
When
the bonnet was closed no one would even know there was
a 240hp V8 under the hood.
Notice
the detail of the under carriage.
