It is you that is shaking outer !!

Since the precious TA with its modified nose cone, head lights and grill and optioned spare steering wheel has been exposed, you have jumped onto another model of these fine vehicles....."The Plus 4"

I'm nearly ready to call it and spare you the barrage from my 1968 Series 1 Brabham Torana.

Thats it white taxi your going to cop it the history lesson.
You have to compare apples with apples{the almighty red will explain this too you if you dont understand.We have been through this evolution thing in mark 1 debate but the TA was not hobbled by the sniffer dogs in 74 so its the small and big block 2 door unstrangled little big wheels{with sexy coulers} against the brabham with white being the brightest one.Put that in your pipe and smoke it.I rest my case. :tease:

Also i did not say i didnt like the HB as i have one a SL 4 door {dont have to worry about dog tail in my face} i just get nervious near desert bowls as no back up continguancy plan available should i fall in.
This debate is about which is the best and i rest my case as we all know you cant beat cubic ins.
{1760 against 1159 no contest}

Hahaha,
that's a 100kmh stretch of road slr_v8, we may have to do it else where so we don't hold up the traffic. :blink:

That new bloody roundabout turning into Stockton mucks up my run up for the bridge. lol

Very entertaining thread fellas, keep it up

i thought this debate was about the little big wheel variants not commondores with their 13in torana bits model.If you want to talk about rarity APL the mighty pus {sorry} plus four outshines all torana
4s with style size performance and rare as,tell me when have you last seen one.As LC 138 said me and my new best friend Muzza need the support here of our mighty LC LJ brothers.Prove to me you are not bogans and are computer literate.I warn you APL if i am forced to bring the mighty plus four into this debate i will to knock your brabham off its perch.I rest my case.

I'm hearing a lot of talk about this "mighty plus four", what exactly is it and why does it need extra enhancements to be better than a Brabham?

Great Terminology
The repressed HB fraternity and the serious Torana collector refer to them as "The Jewel In The Crown"

Dear HB 1159 history lesson no 2 the plus 4 .Its only down side was tyres are not available from bunnings as they are 13 in.It was a lh brought out in 1975 to promote the 4 banger.Big 1900 cc opel 4 speed phillipino no external linkages,availalable in yellow ,red,green.Plus 4 decals on rear quarters and rear panel.Black stripe around car including rear and front bumpers in black, no heavy chrome or rubber strips to slow it down.Power discs needed to stop this beast.Carpets and clock so you could see how late you were running and if thats not enough to get you salvitating,wait for it colour coded slr wheel trims on 4 in rims.Rarer than brabahms but are not included in this debate as this is only about little big wheels,12 in variety.I rest my case long live the big block TA.

You just stepped over the mark Outer....
If you want to kick me in the nuts then give the courtesy of some warning.

Same type of dirty tactic as putting to use that spare steering wheel option, of that Red oversprayed Barbados TA with the modified front nose-cone, grill and head lights. (link below)

http://www.youtube.c...h?v=CMBXBGcFyao

Here I am trying to give a balanced and fair argument.

A White (Grecian White, FYI) Brabham would never have been used as a taxi, unlike poverty pack Kingwoods, A9X's, Commodores and Falcons. (Although, if you have a good look at those interior pictures showing the abundance of room and luxury, they very well could have)

Oh and I see you have jumped back on the TA Band Wagon - Weren't the sexy black bumpers on the "Plus 4" enough for you.

Don't make me pull the Brabham card just yet !!

You forgot about the feeding of the 5,000 out of the boot quote.

You are obviously rattled Outer, or you actually agree with me by quoting my posts.

It's nearly time.....

Sorry I missed that cheap shot about the boot...by the way it could most likely feed 5000 people in a third world country. However as I have previously stated, the actual number is 200. Coincidently 200 being the average number of people at a normal HB get together.

{Its nearly time} bring it on if your game.
