Nice find with the Concorde! that's what I wanted originally but a V8 one in that blue, those steering wheels are awesome - I have one myself in the NF beautiful to drive with.

Cardinal Red is much nicer than Navy Blue!

It still goes ok with the 4.0, for something that probably weighs over 1800kg with me and fuel onboard.

Haha. You need help mate :lol:

A 5.0 conversion is likely for this one. Just wondering what 5.0 exactly to go with.

I could really use your wagon as a donor!

The wagon pulls hard mate! Still available if someone comes up with the dosh, but now with 12 months rego, so price has gone up :P Still too good to part out, but you should probably try an AUIII XR8 donk so it's just a plug and play without needing to go nuts on mods to get power :wink:

I agree re the AU motor. It really woke up the last one, and they don't cost too much. Doesn't have to be fast.
I'm guessing the 6 will sound terrible if I dump the exhaust at the diff? :P

Not sure if it was on here or another forum, but was someone chasing a set of genuine Concord rims?

Not me but I've got a set of NOS centres for the earlier Concorde rims (spoked style), all I need now is the wheels to suit!

Thanks fellas. I work (worked?) in Fruit & Veg. Not real glamorous or skilled, but pays the bills (or did).

I'm hoping to get into a factory or something, just to do bulk hours and earn more. Really trying to get ahead, then this happens :?

Hopefully it works out for the best!

I didn't do anything wrong, I just worked for a clown seemingly. Next week I would of finished my three months probation. Slightly suspicious. :evil: They are trying to cut back, and I was the newest.

Means alot fellas. Just means no mods for a while lol.
