We created this one when we could see SC dying, lucky we did, just a bloody shame so much info went with it

a dam shame was a member of both as well

so many builds and detail gone

even if we put as mush detail as we can remember of our on builds they will never have the fine point they had when they were first done

owned my vn for 17 years now and ran a best of 11.44 in Adelaide back in 2000 and has had 3 different engine set up since then at the moment it a forged 355 4 bolt with roller cam so many years with 1 car were do you start  your build thread

I know what u mean mate. Good to see your around and kicking still.

That vn was always a bit of a weapon.

can be had to start on my own

so starting a car for my self can get hard as as i get ready to go some 1 will turn up  with a job
