Its on a rotisserie at the moment. Full nut and bolt resto with almost new everything. It has HQ brakes so change the rear to disc. 17" wheels. Running a 355 stroker single rail and 9" Change the single rail for a t5 and thats about it. Just build a nice street car.
Cant work out how to put up more pics.

It is a good body, we cant find any rust at all, I guess we will find out in a week or so when the sandblaster gets hold of it.

Hopefully that scoop goes where it belongs and you put something more original back? Enjoy the process!

You are clearly not new to this car building caper - is this the first Torana, or have you done it before? Looking forward to seeing it progress!

I have done a few cars before. That was one weekends worth of work but that is the easy bit. That scoop was all the go in the 90’s when I put it in
