A great way to learn about your car and what is was suppose to look like when it came out of the factory. :spoton:

K-Mac suspension are in sydney and the still have that torana info and story on the wall in the workshop, there is a few more pictures of it as well. It must of been pretty good in its day.

K-Mac did the springs on my G-Pak a few months ago, and I also have K-mac sway bars on my car that have been there for a long time according to them. I was curious to see if my car was the one in the story, but they have a colour shot of the car on the wall and it is yellow.

The original owner of my car must have seen the add with the G-pak and then took mine to them.

They were pretty blown away when I pointed out the add on the wall with my car in the workshop :)
