"A high performance machine"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Nothing except regular servicing at 1000km intervals with torco racing oils. And your normal wear and tear stuff like tyres and brakes.

General comments?

This car is a rip-snorter and a wallet burner, I first got this car in 1997 from an old guy who bought it straight from new. He kept this thing in immaculate condition and it was always garaged, it was perfect, but the only thing that wasn't was the old 253c.i. which was fairly slow. It had to make way for a 350 Chevy that was fully rebuilt by my mate. It's mated up to a re-worked THM-400 with a B@M quickshift, and a Ford 9 inch diff.

I tell you all this cost a lot of money, but it's my pride and joy and I'll never sell it. It's a good cruiser and gets lots of attention from the ladies :P. So far the best time I've been able to pull off is a 11.48@119MPH.
