Default Its alive!

It is finally driving and extremely fast and responsive. I am really happy I chose the windsor engine and auto trans. Just some cosmetics and cammo paint and its all done and on to the next project.

Good morning and thankyou for your comments. I am looking forward to corowa myself and let some other collectors have a drive just to experience the difference with a powerfull engine and an auto trans. You don't have to worry about the correct revs for gear changing. You can consentrate on where you're going and enjoy the ride. I know Tony Smith said you can't beat the sound of a side valve but my carrier sounds like an old GT falcon. I'll put some more pics after its all repainted and accesserised which won't take long.
Colin.
