I did have a worked EF XR6.

Unfortunately the poor car is no more!

I know have a v8 Caprice! Much nicer but not something you built yourself.

Hi there Fish. I did a post on here a while back "what's your ride" or something similar. And I had a really good response from the forum.

How far do you wanna go back LOL.

I've had some really nice cars over my life time and wish I still had them today as they'd be woth a few bucks.

I might knock something up on ord and then add it later if your interested, let me know.

Editted by me; here's the link I was talking about Fish

Bad driver now in a 02 Volvo s40 turbo.
Previous cars include VL commodore, a Mercedes van for poker tables, Parents AU Falcon when they were in WA.

Like the current car. Small enough and fast enough for me in Melbourne.

First car was a mint 1975 volkswagon L superbug. It was white and pimping, ill find a photo somewhere. Second car was a 1990 bmw 320i blue, it was pretty cool, like the VW had dvd player and shit and yea was pretty cool. I drive a 2000 318ti now which is chilled but looking at buying a porsche by the start of next year. Nothing huge but theres a few cool ones out there

spose i had better put some of mine up...

this was one of my first cars, just light mods, springs and shocks, wheels, couple of engine mods, locked diff
Image
but that all came to an end like this
Image

so i moved on to this
Image
Image
more mods then the last, coil-overs, and a whole heap more suspension, locked diff etc

but that got defected, so i turned it into this
Image
the mods incresed again, this time including a turbo kit, was fun until i popped the head three days later 0.o

^^^Disclaimer: the above photo was taken in reference to a joke on my other forums

which turned into this
Image
Image
Image
Image
i pumped about 15k into this one, top range custom suspension components left right and center, engine conversion, turbo kit, ecu, the works really

and now i have this, which is even more of a money pit
Image
Image
