History
It started life with a 253 engine and was a one owner car until it was purchased by a man from Melbourne. It was stripped to down to a shell and was mechanically restored including the fitment of a high performance driveline. I am the third owner, when I purchased it I could see that the car was in excellent condition with no rust and much of the restoration work had already been done for me. The previous owner gave up the car reluctantly and was only letting her go due to a change in his personal circumstances.
After purchasing the car and getting it back home to South Australia I hooked straight in and starting finishing off the remaining work left on the car to make it drivable and road worthy. Once she was good to go I slapped some registration on her and began driving/tuning it.
Since then it has seen a full respray in the original colour and has been tuned perfectly. I have been fortunate enough to acquire enough original material to re-upholster the entire interior. Although it is already in excellent condition and some have said not to bother, I just can't help myself..
