You can have the yacht, as long as you take Greta with you.

I was bored so went down the Youtube rabbit hole and there were Holden and Ford compilations of street/track burnouts. **** I love this country

They may not be making any new ones but lucky we have a **** load to keep us going for a while yet.

To give some context, we are having a battle with the Muricans who just can't accept we cut skids anywhere we like just because Aussies do it around here. Freeedumb!

They are thinking we have purpose built burnout machines and we are thinking yeah nah.

We have plenty of street legal and illegal machines to prove that wrong.

Pity we can't power anything with outrage.

XK150 DHC. My heart says black but my head says white. IMO one of the most beautiful cars ever made.

How could a hot air balloon ever decend when the person in the basket is the creating all the hot air? Anyhow, watched a few videos of cars getting entrant numbers and scrutineering at sumnernats. And the attention to detail some people take and the time and money invested. Its impressive. I remember 20 years ago when retro fitting a black 304 into an old holden and keeping efi was the bees dick. But some of those guys, well, its like giving my kid a lego brochure. Did that once and had to tell him circle the models you dont want.

I guess you must have your reasons but I'd love to know what they are.

A friend bought one from the army in the 80's and it was one of the most awful cars I've ever been near. Unreliable, deafening, rode like a buckboard, awful to drive. Just a horrible car. My 74 range rover (no steer or air) was utter paradise by comparison.
