My first car was a 1965 XP ute which I had done up and fitted a 250 2V, top loader gearbox and a LSD equipped centura diff along with brake and suspension upgrades. I did all this back in 1989-1990 when I was in yr12 at school.

1938 Chev sedan. Cost me 10 Quid. I was 15 so I had to leave it in the neighbours paddock & tell my old man that it belonged to them otherwise he would have flogged me. :ohnoes:

In 1979 I bought a 1970 Hillman Hunter Safari wagon !!!!!!!!!!!!

I think I paid $900 for it.

It was nothing special, but it went OK.

After I'd had it about 6 or 9 months, a mate who worked at Granville Speedway dropped over with all the "go fast" bits from a Hillman GT that was left after a smash up derby night.

Alloy head, twin carbies, extractors and cam all went in - it was my first engine pull down.

Did 100mph on Mona Vale Rd not long after :bowdown:
