You guys down under got some different animals than we have in the states, their cool but different, nice.
Different to what you would see in the USA ,but normal here such as the holden Front end and whats that? A leyland p76 V8?
I know some of these`s pics arnt suited for this site but i just thought out of interests you might like to see them My son`s first car Holden HJ one tonner
Welcome aboard FantaC,Love those old pic's. loved Trev's 5 wido pickup,I remeber that we swap cars on one of my Outkast Kruizes. I had a ball in his Rod and he said mine drove like a bus ha ha ha....
We swapped cars one day so i could fit the side windows and i have been hooked ever since . It was great fun to drive Gotta get me one
nope,just interested to see a Leyland ( nee Rover,nee buicK) Engine in there. Damned good engine and could really sing when you were 'driving' on a gravel road out back...
What is your daily driver? Year, make, model? It's the same car/van? as Mad Max's family car is it not? Thanks for posting some different cars to check out. Love the "last of the V8's". It's gotta be one of my all time favorites.
Yes its the same as Max`s van but the commercial version Its got a bigblok 202 red motor lol They made a van called a SandMan ( Max`s van ) This was the sale add . the van scene was big here in the late 70`s here`s a pic of an old custom van from the early 80`s
My brother had a Green HJ SandMan it had black interior extra gauge`s bucket seats 4 speed 308 V8 i use to cruise around in the back with the top tailgate open ( bad fumes but that was the look back then ) I still remember that rumbling sound lol he paid about $2500 and it was only about 4 years old now a good original one fetch`s around $25000
If you like Mad Max`s car you might like Danny Green`s car I did some metal work on it here is a link to a video i made
My old man had an apprentice who bought, as his first ca,r a Valiant panel van with the lair paint job and 360 Vee 8 ( cant remember what they were called ,but were rare when new) .This clown wrote if off 2 weeks after buying it,and spent the next 4 years paying off the loan.I missed out on getting the wreck by a week as it went to Sims. Today those fetch 5 figures easily WHEN one comes up for sale.
Cool so thats Danny's car , met him a couple of times terribly nice bloke (no need for attitude when you can fight like that ) funny tho every brown coupe i see reminds me of acco's coupe from 'two hands' . ps how is lil j after his public whipping the other day ? ha ha (he's a good kid , was involved in his last greaser's run cookin the bbq at rockers)
That was it!, Bright orangy /red with a big multi colored sticker on each side. Far faster than any Holden or Ford Van in it's day,as dopey found out ha ha ha
Thats why the coppers had them,but as I once found out,by the time they packed all that shit in the boot I could be gone..ha ha ha
