It is originally a HK GTS, 186S or 307, number 2484 from the Pagewood (Sydney) plant. It was originally Picardy red (1152) with black vinyl trim (10X). If the Saginaw and 10-bolt are original it would have originally been a V8 (307) GTS 4-speed. HOWEVER, |

the 127 written in ink is likely to be from a wrecker, they wouldwrite codes on parts so they knew which car it came from.
Byron it cannot be a typo on the 07 as the sequence number is too high to be a 327 body.
My guess for this car is that someone

Leith, if you are in contact with Ross, the tags match the body so someone has stuck a genuine 327 engine into a GTS (probably the rest of the stuff too). Also ask him if the car is blue and came from the Newcastle region as I saw a similar car to this a |

I always found a good male Dobe to be an excellent thief deterrent. Biggest sooks until someone unknown enters their territory....(and they remember people even after 7 or 8 years!).

Given the following facts:
