[Screaming Eagle]

nice! good thing about the toranas, small car, big engine bay!

 

[Heinz]

damn straight, I mean I was fitting a new water pump the other day, dropped a spanner bent down through the engine bay and picked it off the ground.

Not many cars you can do that with.

 

[Heinz]

Heres some more.......



FB Holden Wagon, another Aussie contribution. Running a slightly modified engine Guessing its a 383 blower 6/71 combo. I love the billet.



Starting one of a few cars that were in progress but already looked stunning. The guys in the U.S have started the bare metal theme and I gotta say I love it. The panal massaging on this steel body is very impressive though the engine would inhale a man whole when at full belt. It was in my favourites from the show The wheel pattern has thrown me a little, anyone got any info on that styling?????




Some more metal. Nice 34 I think.




I took this one to demonstrate the work some of these guys put into their cars. THe hours on the steel alone would be in the 100s. Looking very cool.




A very evil Chevy. Monstrous engine on this thing. More street machiners coming out in force here. Im not sure whether you call em street machines in the U.S but over here its basically a cool car with some mega engine work.


Again lime a popular colour.
