Just have to post these pics of this beast. Its a full steel hq monaro streetie. Has to be seen to appreciate the hours and workmanship put in to this car. Even the roof has the curves, the bonnet has all the lines etc, even the guards have the lips on them. Its impressive!!

Its still in damn fine shape if you ask me! Especially after the attention it got, I saw it fed up the wall twice, and its only got a few dents, nothing major, still looks like a virgin!

Damn i would be keen on a sedan down here in chch. Come on Slick twist the arm for me bro. Its hard to come up with a price but to give you an idea the charger and rover that were built here cost the guys $200 and they supplied the base plate and bars. The charger the C&S guys built looks awesome as well. Unfortunately it was a prime target for its first outing, however held up reasonably well.

Charger was 250 for the body minus K&M base/bars. Rover was done in exchange for a base/bar set due to it being an experiment (first build) and we had no idea how it would turn out. rangi, how do you get your bends so smooth, and the edges so nicely rounded off/clean? it looks so damn nice. We need a "sharp edges, toy not for minors" warning our ours.
