Welcome mate, can't wait to see some pics. If you have a photo bucket account or a site like it, then you just copy the link on the pick you want to post and then past it in.

        New member , great site from what ive seen so far, well i have a tc an td both ground up builds for hillclimb , spints and circuit. living in baturst it kind of lends itself to racing , have run my Eb xr8 for a number of years but as a tc was my first car an there are no entries in or very few in s2 cams class. i decided to do one ,then two.
        Running gear is all nylophane, king springs koni adj, and all other components new. camber kit by kmac, pbr twin caliper with vetilated 295mm discs. panhard rods EB falcon, shortened, original diff housing with xf lsd , 5 stud axles and EB rear discs , brake booster changed to a 1" bore master . the motor has had little bottom end work , cam an head has had the most work but take forever to list, electronic ignition , and manifold carrying a modified 350 holley .
        The extractors are split 3 and twin to rear , trim is as original bar the instuments and added guages etc. harness and seats , roll cage from bonds.
        The addition of the cobra stipes was the wifes idea as the newgel spoiler made her think it mas a minime cobra lol. women ha. but now im warmed to it so is all good. will post the build with pics in the right forum to have a sticky beak

I like the way the cobra stripes go into the engine bay. Car sounds like a nice combination.
