So yeah just as a heads up, give it a good going over!

What model Torry do you have? Always loved the XU1's, albeit if I was to have a holden muscle car in my collection it would be a HT/HK/HG GTS monaro

My uncle had a blue SLR5000, with some big chevoits and bf eagers. I was going to do it up as my 1st car but mum wouldnt let me store it in her backyard or let me work in it in a 'high HP' deathtrap 308 with a 3speed AT lol it would have been lucky to pull the skin off a bowl of custard...
I have a very small rocker cover leak, more like a fine mist, doesnt look like its causing a problem with the belt though.
Yeah i have a little XU1 in mint condition, red one, i love it to bit, struggles doing 100km's on the hwy reving at like 4000rpm lol.. I love the SLR's, my next torana with be an LX SLR with some insane 800-900hp motor, gotta go all out lol
