My 1974 GC galant - update 27-2-13

[ssive]

Hi all, this is my 1974 GC Galant (sorry only pics i have at the moment - taken today)

Purchased it off a mate quite cheap as he needed it moved ASAP. It was painted about 10-11 years ago in ford AU blue with a purple pearl put thru it.
Didnt really know what i was going to do with it, so opted for the easy option - skid car - so i aquired a vn v6 as a donor and was set to go down that path.
Then i was offered a Turbo GSR Sigma (technically Galant i believe) at a very reasonable price so i have decided to treat the car a bit nicer. Still not 100% if its going to be attempted for licensing, or just a track car.

As i got the car its probably 80% complete. missing seats, front bumper, carpets etc. However did come with a few spares.
Heres a couple of pics of it... Im sure ill be frequent on here alot more with questions and updates etc.
Cheers,
Andrew

Also to add,

I got the sigma at home, had a jammed throttle... got that cleared up and took it for a drive, was good fun.

Now to start stripping it and preping everything for the galant!
