Gday Mate Gday all
Another pint sized Aussie here to say hello,
This is my old love, but a misses saw it leave, and I been missing "Baby Girl" ever since, Had some minor head work, small cam, tune, difillipo Headers, redback dual 2.5" manual with rip shift, Exceed organic clutch with a 6speed and 3.43 diff ratio, was going to go a 3.73 but she was gone before then. I never got into the 11's with it, close, made a few changes and never got back to the strip.
Now the station wagon ( and misses ) is gone and I went back to a ute and picked up a Blank slate for 10 grand and just on 100 000klm's.
Currently Auto, but a 6 speed is in the Shed and getting a few upgrades to make it reliable. Waiting to source a Diff from a maloo ute as there 3.73 ratio, hunting for bits and pieces for the donk to, looking at about 500 to 600Hp range on N/A, haven't made up my mind on internals yet This one will see the 11's.
Cheers

nice looking ute man, and ya it is easy to import a ute to the states, just need an importer, they have the same crash test results as the Pontiac gto here so you should not have to worry about that.
