Thats a beautiful car right there!

Well done on the resto, ive got the savings acct happening right now for an XU-1 probably a couple of years away but i have always been passionate about them.

Let an original LJ GTR slip through the fingers for $4000 when i was younger, imagine what it would be worth now, still things happen for a reason and i dont think i was responsible enough back then anyways.

Too fast for a young fella and it probably would of earned the nickname coffincar probably...

I remember your display you had the original news paper cliping of when you bought it and than bit of history on the car. Made me remember it so it worked, I think they're holding van nats there next year so should be an even better show last year they put it on the same weekend as about 3 other things that were happening in the area which sucked a bit hope they sort it out so it doesn't coincide with other events again

Nice Torana mate. I've got an lc gtr myself. It too was an ex cop car. Cheers

How did you go about identifying yours as being an ex cop car.
Cheers Dave

when i bought it i was told it was....so i decided to find out for myself. there were a few telltale signs like a patched hole in the roof, holes under the dash as well as others, and the dealer code it was sold thru originally was one of only a few that supplied to nsw police in sydney.
there were some helpful people on another forum i get onto as well that provided some useful info on what to look out for and where.
cheers
