Well to the people who saw my car on the old forum's, and to the people that thought they had seen it on ebay-is was on there, the car has been sold-less motor, box and a few other things. Now alot of people have said im crazy to give up a car like that, but my reasons are fairly simple, it wasnt as neat as it could've been, there were alot of things that i would've done differently had I built the car from day 1, and i really wanted my OWN built car, all i did on the old car was improve it. So the car goes tommorow and im on the look out for another sedan, the new car will be painted in a kermit green colour with yellow pearl and also it will have bright yellow flames down the front(with pearl added in), so the colour has been decided on(its a colour ive wanted to do for years), the interior wont be the white like the last 1 was its going to be the brightest yellow i can get, something different for a torana anyway. Itll have a cage like the last 1, weld wheels, maybe billets for the street, a hell of alot more detail, and a few other things that ill keep quiet about for now, the engine, even though its new, will also get some cubic upgrades, 383 more than likely. So as soon as i have my new car the work will begin, and ill post up plenty of pics, there will be plenty to show......

not crazy, just want something you can put your hand up for all of the work, nothing wrong with that 
the person who originally had my car had plenty of good ideas but had no idea in prep work, hence why i gotta fix it up now lol (plus i always wonder how much bog is in it, for a 29y/o car its too damn straight lol)

Yeah the guy who did most of the work on mine did some dodgy stuff that had to be fixed, i'd rather do my car, my way and do it properly from start to finish

Gday NOSLH, I know EXACTLY how you feel mate, My Qie is the perfect example of what your feeling...
Unless people have spent oodles of time and money repairing ther people's stuffups.. then they dont really know how it feels!
Good on you, i know your next project will be bigger, badder and better than before
Cheers!

Thanks Tiny, as the car was taken away on the trailer yesterday, my wife asked if i was sorry to see it go, you know what it didnt bother me in the slightest and i cant wait to get started on MY new car. Ive got everything sorted out on how its going to look, and ive just finished ordering some stuff from the states for it so im going to be looking real hard for a new shell over the next couple of weeks!!!
