Fell asleep at the wheel and put it, and myself through a very large road sign at about 70 MPH South West WA in the early 80s (age showing)
Great car -- could hold its own with a 308 -- all back when webbers were the go

Hi Swarbs.

The VIN tag (the skinny, middle one) was taken off an HG 6-cyl Kingswood. It does not belong on a Torana.

The body ID plate is from an LC GTR (or GTR XU-1), painted Indy Orange, with a Black interior.

The trim number should have another letter on the end (after the 40).

The ADR Compliance plate could be the original for an LC GTR. Hard to tell without more info.

Have to have another scrounge as have a few old plates there and must have grabbed the wrong one
Nice to know the original colour -- it ended up canary yellow -- hence the nick name it had of the black arsed budgie
Thank's Dr T & gtr

Yep
Trim 1199-40 V
The only other middle tag floating round is 81169TL626063
This just might be off the old HQ van

ADR plate info 2.3.4.5.5A.10A.15.20

Hi Swarbs.

The VIN plate '81169TL626063' is off an HT 6-cyl Premier sedan.
