hi new guy from oz onboard

[aussietony]

Hey everyone i have just joined the forums. I am based down here in melbourne australia. I have just bought a 69 camaro its got a 6.0 ls2 and a 6 spd manual gear box, front coilovers and a rack and pinion conversion. It is awsome I bought it sight unseen from a importer in queensland which is approx 900+ miles from home i flew up then drove it home!! Im luvin it ive only had it 3 weeks and i am fast becoming one of classic industries best customers!! Ive also fitted a pair of Leather trimmed front seats out of what you fellas know as a pontiac G8 they are much more comfortable than the old standard seats. This weekend im fitting 330mm front disc brakes and 300mm rear discs.
looking ahead i am thinking about vintage air and a set of extractors.
i would also like to know who actually built it. I am led to believe it came from Arizona ?
Any way ive banged on long enough i look forward to enjoying all this site has to offer.

Cheers Tony.

Was that the yellow one from Peter Leahy? I'm in Melbourne doing hail repairs but live in Brisbane. I cant believe how much cool old stuff I see driving around the streets on a daily basis. Give me a pm if you want to catch up.

Nice car... Sounds like you have some G8 GT seats swapped in... I'd love to see them.

My daily driver is a 2008 magnetic grey metallic G8 GT... thanks for the awesome engineering/ride!

Also - I ran into some of your fellow blokes on the Hot Rod Power Tour....
