Melbourne here...

One VK is a Berlina 1985 it has 89,000km on the clock all original. Its my sentimental baby. My grandfather bought it win 1985 brand new, he traded in his Monaro for it.. DOH!! 3 Months after he bought it, he died of a Heart Attack and it sat in the garage for 4 years. At 66 year old my grandmother thought she should get her license and she drove it for 10 years to lawn bowls and back. When she died she passed it onto me.

Problem is its been smashed twice by uninsured drivers, broken into 5 times and its looking very much worse for wear since I have had it:( I promised my self it will return to its former glory (with a japanese heart transplant)

Other VK is a calais I bought off ebay for $400, it had some HDT kit other than that its a pile of crap basically the 1st engine i dismantled and tidied up just to see if I could do it.. Call it my training car.

My silver Zed is my project car atm. Imported 2+2 TT Auto spent a shit load of money on it, its very pretty and shiny owes me about 20k atm at least.

2nd Zed I bought cos I found myself a deal on aus300zx.com i couldnt pass up. 2+2 TT Manual for 4k, needs a tidy up but was a bargain.. Ill be fixing it up for resale.

Falcon is the family mobile Smile
