No you wouldn't. The current owner has connections and you'd end up getting charged.

Yes. Its just that it is an overcast day.
Alright then. I'll take note of that reason next time I am pulled up and asked if my tint is legal :D
Well done, you'll need to get some videos online of it when it is running around doing what it is meant to.

as I have said on many occasions, that car is even more teh hotness than a starlet (with possible exception of Rollins) and is about to get the performance to match the looks, pure awesomeness, all pics should be labelled *NWS*
Beautifull looking car mate......
Something i'd really love to own...but am to scared too....so I just admire cars like yours and stay with what I know for myself...the Jap stuff :)
Yeh nice looker, not sure about that rear suspension though. And thats the best you are going to get from me Dave :)
not sure about that rear suspension though.
They work, thats all that is important. Have tried Eibach, H&R and neither worked as well as the kings.
Dave
I will own one some day. Looks Tough as nails in black.

FFS, since when did it become bad form for somebody to comment on somebody else's car, no matter how old the thread is?

August 7, 1978.
It was a dark and stormy night, the type that caused nipples to be erect and the idea of afros on white men to seem like a good idea. George "The Funkadelic Garbage Truck" Johnston had just finished a shift at the bar he worked - The Flaming Cuntrash - in the underground hills of Southport.
George, or Funkadelic GT as he liked to be known, was in prime disco form with his Fairlane returned that day with the paint stripped off and the exterior completely recovered in purple velvet (offsetting the interior trimmed in astro turf and alligator skin). He was sure he'd be mackin' bitches all night with such a superfly ride and set out to go show off his massive lapels - which, due to their massive oversize nature, also doubled as an emergency landing strip for B52s - and impress the hos with some serious disco skill... like cooking pancakes while dancing.
Rather than risking getting his far outta groovy sight velvet-covered Fairlane all un-funked he locked it up in a glass cube and strutted his way down to the discotheque, abandoning the fondue he was making in the oversized Ford (I told you it was superfly, mother-licker). Funkadelic GT was halfway to the club when he was set-upon by a group of bogans who threatened to beat him with their removable mullets.
Remembering that he had The Funk (in a convenient can form for when you absolutely, positively have to bust every cracker honky's ass), Funkadelic GT channeled the Bootsy Collins and had soon drowned the flannel-wearing troglodytes in cheesy fondue. Several hours later, on his way back to the Fairlane, Funkadelic GT passed by the bogans still lying in fondue with one pulling his face out of the tepid cheesy slop to proclaim, "Sweet ride, dude. Chuck a skid you cunt." before expiring.
The delay in the compliment angered him so greatly that Funkadelic GT tore his safari suit off (never fear, he had a brown jumpsuit on underneath - this is a PG timeslot) and walked off into the night, never to bust a move on a QLD dance floor again, although there have been some sightings over the years, including on the Gold Coast behind the wheel of a black Porsche with Q plates...
So now you know. Friends don't let friends thread dig.
Regards,
Ginger McRangatron

Well I found the pic in the driveway equally pleasing and request more of said vehicle.
Definitely in my top 10 of all cars, this parked next to a Lancia Delta Integrale HF is the boxed fenders batoff olympics.
