Chargers need to be a bright colour, and Vitamin C and a few other colours have been done to death. As for the ...

Re: Hi all

Thanks Jason, I am following a bit of an 80's theme with this car. For those around my age almost 40, remember the cars that used to be featured in Street Machine & Performance Street Car back in the early 80's. That is the look I am going for. Totally Old School, it won't appeal to everyone, bu...

Re: Hi all

Bought some 15x8.5 inch Jellybeans for the car, am going to swap 2 with a mate, for 2 15x7's for the front. Will still keep the Centrelines as well, I just want to change the look from time to time. These wheels never saw the road, they were bought for an XY Falcon show car, and were never used. The...

Re: Hi all

Are you staying with the white Pete? If so, what colour/name white are you choosing? I am going to paint the car the original colour, Pampas/Acid green. Most of you will be familiar with this colour, was used on a lot of GC/GD Galants in the 70's. This is a pic of what the colour looks like on a Ch...

The roof was bogged pretty bad, around where the electric sunroof was fitted.

Re: Mic_77 Galant coupe

What a tough little coupe Mic, would love to see an update. Like where you are going with it, pro street style, my Charger is being built that way. Similar colour too, I am painting mine the original Pampas/Acid green, which was available on Galant's also. Nice work Mic.

Great thread, I remember looking at the GH Sigma Turbo and Wherrett specials, when they first come out in the showrooms. I have always liked them. That car of yours is in very good condition, please keep the updates coming, great work.

Yeah mate, the Cennies hammer. I missed out on 2 Galants on Ebay which was disappointing, then the Centura came up. Couldn't knock it back.
