Better late than never
Hi, I've been a member for a little while now, but I have kept a low profile. I live in Australia and I drive a 1978 Holden Hz Panelvan with a 454 in it. It has exhaust flamethrowers and runs on straight LPG, which is a common fuel for big V8s over here, but I am told that it is used more for those big mobile home things over in the U.S.A.
Here is a pic of it,
I hope to pop up on here a little more often from now on, so I look forward to chatting with a few of you soon,
Cheers

Yeah they are a great car. They come as a sedan,station wagon, coupe, ute(styleside, sort of like an El Camino), a tray back (as we call them, a 1 tonner) and as a Panelvan. They are a bit like a second gen camaro in the front end but with a 4 link coil rear end in the sedans and wagons. I can post some more pics if you want.No Replacement for Displacement

on small cars yes. but fat fender cars are pretty much the same in size and weight as the donor car. i found s10 brakes work great on fat fender and pickups. a deuce will just need manual brakes...
Time for brakes
