History

I bought this one from a private seller in Qld in 2014. I dragged my feet shockingly getting the rust repairs done for roadworthy so we only got it back on the road (club rego) in mid-2019. The engine & drivetrain swap (donor car was a VS) was done prior to me buying it by an owner in Victoria.

While we owned it we road-tripped it all over Queensland and I taught my youngest son to do heel-and-toe burnouts in it.

In 2023 I sold it to a young bloke from the other side of town who was looking for his first proper Open-licence muscle car. I miss this car, but I'm sure the new owner is giving it the attention I was never going to.

Miss you, Bevan! <3
