This Motor will be going in my original project it was intended for, a 1975 HJ Monaro GTS Coupe. I don't have a picture of my Monaro, but an example of someone elses, and i have a picture of my Kingswood, which is a stock looking sleeper. I'll try to send the pics.
Thanks for the warm welcome :LOL:
Welcome Tom to CHR. Post some pictures.
I've got to apologize. My scanner isn't working for some reason, so i'll have to try with some pictures later on. So much for modern technology sometimes, :whacked: :LOL:
HJ MONARO this picture. Mines the same, but yellow in colour, in the middle of a rebuild too. I put the Engine in my Holden HQ Kingswood to get it run-in while the Monaro is being rebuilt.
This is the Holden HQ 1971-1974 Kingswood, with SBC under hood, intended for the Monaro once it's run in.
Welcome to CHR, neat looking rides ya got there. Enjoy your stay.
Welcome to CHR, I'm new around here too! Your cars are great...hope to see more pics when you get them... :3dSMILE:
