Hi all, Been here for a bit and thought maybe it was time I introduced myself,
Now I'm starting to get to know some of you I thought I'd add my bit.

I have been a Holden fan from as far back as I can remember. Had mostly LH and LX Toranas in my younger years

My dad recently handed me the keys to his EH Ute which I learnt to drive in (among other things), He bought it in 1973 for $600, what a bargain!! Dad can no longer drive the old girl so shes mine.

I also have an Absynth Yellow LX SS Hatch (253 model)that needs full restoration and is currently fully stripped and waiting for me to build a rotisserie for it. I saved this from a guy that was going to tub it and drop the roof line, animal!!!

Another one of my toys which you probably guessed by my tag name is a Lina Mint 1971 HQ 350 GTS Coupe (this ones a story in itself). It's got to be restored as well but at this stage, the parts collecting continues...

I also have 3 daily drivers and one of which is a Black HSV Coupe 4, build number 3 originally owned by HSV and was used as a PR car. If anyone knows about them they will know what I mean when I say that this will be the 81837 in 20 years along side the W427 and if it doesnt....well who cares, Im having a fat time driving it. Its one hell of a nice car to ride in!!!

Anyway I hope to get to know a few more members, I have already managed to talk to a couple of you and I hope that if I get stuck during a resto youll offer some good advice and if I can help I'll throw my two bobs worth in when I can.

Dont really have a favourite out of them, they all have something special about them or have meaning to me, I do like the Coupe 4 though, with the AWD grip and the power it is awesome to drive. Ill see if I can post some pictures of her with the others. I dont have any of the old EH ute as its still at the old mans cause I just havent got the room.
