Spotted on 02/01/10 - a very nice looking Metallic Blue LC GTR travelling on Beaudesert Rd, Calamvale while I was up at my mates place in Brissy. Plates were custom 'GTR-069' (i think or at least had 'GTR' on them)

Dark Green SLR-33L cruising the streets of Canberra.

Just back from the Nats. More Torries there this year than I've seen in many years. You name it, it was there.

Should we really be including number plates in this thread?

I'm not sure if it's possible to do a search for 'Torana' under vehicle model at the motor registries but we are making it easier for the crooks with access to rego records to pick out good ones from bad ones.

Spotto a red LX 4-door race car for sale in Kangaroo Valley. Round white circles on the door with No. 14 in black.

It is not LXChev366, as I had dinner with him Wednesday night.

I was going to get a phone number and have a look, but came home via the bay.

well yes and no... i used to be conscious about number plates but at the end of day if someone wants to steal it they'll get it... its got just as much chance of driving past someone who could steal it.

Yeah but how long do you have to drive around the streets before you find a Torana you like the look of?

Come to this forum, if you like one with plates, get your nudge nudge wink wink mate at the RTA to track it down, bingo.

True that first you have to have the mate at the RTA but the criminal types tend to have their ways.

Not that it would ever happen but why give them the chance?
