1964 Ap5 Valiant safari wagon - Currently undergoing a major rebuild

1967 Vc Valiant - Future project car

1973 HQ GTS Monaro 4 door
Currently it is my oldschool project to keep in the family. Bought from dads mate who was the second owner of it.

1st owner modded the 253 in the car and dropped in a TH400 to replace the Trimatic. This engine dropped a cylinder so when I purchased it, just to get it running we put in a reconditioned 308 which is still backed by the TH400. It runs a 600dp Holley on an edelbrock manifold, 4-1 headers into a twin 2.5" system. The car is slow and needs a service at the moment but it still sounds good and for a lazy cruiser is tops.

Also still has original paint and the interior is all original as well and in good condition.

Datsun 1600.

[attachmentid=413135]

has anyone put their pre 74 cars into wintersun?

This WAS my 74 civic turbo, sold it a while ago. Lots & lots of fun

Gday all!

This is my 1965 Honda SM600 Coupe, however still working on it to get it back on the road.

DOHC, water-cooled, 4 cylinder engine with four carburetors, 606cc. It has 57 hp at 9500 rpm and top speed of 145km/h.

well here is mine. its a 1964 ford cortina mk1. so far i have retrimmed the carpet and the doors and parcel tray. engine conversion = s13 sr20det and tranny. still has a anglia diff, all escort dash and cluster. will update soon with proper list

Ohhhh there is a god......

splat!

That is one of my dream cars, down to the colour and all!

3 leyland mini clubmans of various vintage, 1 mini cooper (it was made in japan in 1994, but shh, it's a 60's design...), 1 porsche 911 SC from 1977, although the engine no longer counts as vintage, and a triumph Spitfire mk 1(?) complete with GT6 engine will be finished by xmas, i'll add pictures in an additional post when it's complete. yes, insurance companies just fucking love me
i don't have many large displacement fuel guzzling dinosaurs unfortunately, budget has kept me to smaller stuff, even the 911 returns excellent fuel mileage.

oh, and two of the clubmans will be for sale for new drivers wanting something fun and thrifty/new P platers, since i concluded it's unfair to hog so much awesomeness to myself. That, and i need to pay off the others....
they won't be ready for a couple of months, but if you want first look reserve it in a PM to me

i got a hz one tonner all stock,
im doing it up though i have allready got rid of the tray

I just make it in with my vk commodore. it's a berlina wagon with 3 speed auto and 202 (currently blowing lots of smoke and in the process of dying)

It is a bit of a drag project, and i'm tossing up whether to stick with the 202 and auto and run consistent times for dial in, or put something more powerful in it, at the risk of losing consistency.

No pictures yet, but videos on youtube.
my first ever pass - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zBa4pnU-wE

i see your 42 hiboy and raise you a 40 chevy sloper with 39 buick front

That is very cool. Chop looks a little odd on the windscreen pillars.. but very cool nonetheless.

If you don't mind me asking..

Whats been done to it?
How long have you had it?
How much did you get it for?
What are your plans?

I'm also after a '49 - '51 Chevy sedan.. i reckon they are one of the damn nicest cars and with a chop, shaved handles and nosed and decked.. they look unreal.

This was my old car (also my first car) that i sold just recently after owning for almost 3 years, 1978 Mercedes-Benz 280CE
Upgraded to a 1988 Mercedes 500SEC

















Some mods included a Single 2.5" Exhaust system with resonator and Genie turbo muffler with twin 3" dump tips
Cold air intake
Sound System
Custom Parcel shelf
Lowered
Rims
Converted to mbtex beige seats with the rest of the interior blue. (for a cool mix and match look)
clear indicators
blacked out grill and inside of headlights

Thats pimp ^^^^

That would be an awesome cruiser.
