Just to upset the skewed curve of distribution...W427 :(

I am in no way complaining about the awesomeness of this garage, but if I was in a position to own this I'd have got them in different colours...or I'd be forever comparing shades of red!

love them both. if we were talking the monaro 427 that was supposed to go into production at $250K or an R35. I would have to say I'd go the monaro. I love my japanese cars and have had heaps of them inc R35 GTR but deep down I love my aussie monaro and reckon the 427 would be a goer with all the gear that was on them.

one of my favourite cars and i've been in some good ones over the years! I was gutted that they never went ahead with making more.

I mean just look at the engine in the thing...

Agreed...the Coupe 60 and the HRT427 were just sex on wheels in their own different rights. Coupe 60 had some beautiful and innovative styling cues (side exhausts on a street car, no B pillar and the bootlip spoiler) which would have been cool if they made it to production. HRT427 was a racing beast made for the street, that would have carried with it immense street cred. Pretty sure the unofficial quartermile on the HRT427 was 12 seconds flat. Of course, if you really want one there are a couple of Melbourne based companies who can get your CV8 pretty similarly set up to it.

That's exactly why I like this owner's garage. Evidence of no inherent and irrational bias towards a particular type of car...he's tasted the goods on either side and decided he likes both. Which is more than I can say for a couple of people on this forum :yes:

Unless of course it is his wife's car lol.

    • I like their veal scallopini.
    • Definitely a hearty eater when we go out, I consider these meals my cheat day as I've been watching my calories in and calories out pretty hard since my little fun size stroke, I've gone from a fat boy of 89 Kg, I'm only 165cm tall/short, down to a almost semi lean 73 Kg over the last few years, I'm currently around 17% body fat which my doctor is very happy with, but, my goal is to slowly get down to and maintain 15%,so yeah, I want all of the protein, carbs, fats and sugars when I go out for a binge
    • There was a great one on Victoria Rd in Gladesville too back in the day. I can only assume GTSBoy is thinking of the mill up on the wollondilly, no restaurant there any more but they have restored the original steam engine on site and run it every few months, have an annual steampunk festival etc @The Bogan, you came to the wrong town for restaurants. we have a few reasonable asian and indian options but the Paragon is as good as it gets otherwise. That brewery is apparently just opened, been meaning to give it a go some time. The Highlands have plenty of fancy options but I suspect you are more a hearty eater than fancy eater
    • Thanks for coming back to post the update, maybe it will help out the next person!
    • Going by the intake & injectors I'd be guessing it's a DE, check the head casting number, should be 5L8 on a DET, 5L7 I think is the DE number.
