Finally got the car registered and certified, can’t thank @cletus enough for his help, patience and encouragement during the process. Tucked it in next to the triumph, strange bedfellows.

Fast forward a couple months, the car failed on a few things (mostly mechanical) which we had fixed up Mike Bari at nxtlvl automotive. But also found a couple dodgy repairs in the back end which are currently being sorted by Mr Wong at Hughes. My ma and pa are home next weekend (the treatment didn’t provide any positive outcome) so hoping for some summer cruising and a trip to OS drag day for some lols

Dropped it in for compliance today, expecting a few small things that need remedying. Plus an interior shot, love that hurst shifter

This really belongs to my dad but I’d like to chuck a build thread up for those that are interested. This a 68 gt390 Mustang that my dad bought out of the states at the start of the year. He’s always wanted a “bullit” mustang after seeing the movie when it came out, fast forward 50 odd years, and he finally can afford one. The Plan was to get it vinned and ready for the road but unfortunately we ran out of time as he flys out to the states tomorrow with my mum. 2 years ago she was diagnosed with stage 4 bowel cancer at the age of 65 and is now travelling to Houston as a last ditch effort to receive some effective treatment. So my brother and I will be hoping to have the car ready for them when they return in about 12-18 weeks.

Marcus, I hope dassy passed the workshop manual on. Get started here http://www.burtonpower.com/tuning-guides/tuning-guide-pages/ford-kent-crossflow-tuning-guide.html also put minilites on it and do a sweet single pegger skid.

Let me be the first to say, finish your Holdens

Bummer. Was all ready to take the boy to his first car show. Wife says 9 week old+rain=bad.

Hopefully it will clear up. See you all there!

Why isn't 3 on the tree in here? I hear he likes holdens.

wooo 355 stroker! Why you no auto? Shift kitted th350 and a high stall

Unless you really want to own it, I'm not currently using it. Fancy a "long term loan" of it?

Yes. Jesus himself runs a 304 in his bombodore in heaven. Nice purchase! I highly recommend the book How To Rebuild & Hot Rod Your Holden 253 308 by max ellery. Covers 304 also. I have a copy if you are interested

An HQ rusting in the plenum chamber? Now I've seen everything. My brother had the same trouble on his sedan. Had nothing but trouble with replacement plenum panels from rare spares. Ended up repairing the fucked one.

this is parked at my factory(not mine) 944s2 left hook imported from Japan of all places. Unaware of state of rego. Could ask the owner of you are interested
