Hi Guys
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but I just got a text from a good friend of mine saying that Andrew had passed away laast night. Andrew had a heart attack about two weeks ago had had to be revived then. since the attack he has been in the hospital and I am not 100% sure of the details but last he passed away. Most of you will know Andrew as a member of these forums, the owner of Milton Performance in Brisbane and the builder of the 24C Bond xu-1 replica.
RIP Andrew. our thoughs go out to you and your family.
Gav
RIP Andrew - Milton Performance

Andrew wouldn't have been teribly old would he? I'd spoken to him a few times, and bought a few things from him, he was a genuine guy and it's a real shock to me. I hope somehow his business can go on as that would be a loss for Torana owners.

What a loss, Andrew was a really nice guy and a real enthusiast.
He used to love it when customers bought their Toranas over he always checked them out and was one of the most helpful people around.
I had no idea he was ill.
