this guy seems biased towards the Stinger and another comparo, this guy seems biased towards the Commodore Interesting, but I have already made my choice, I bought an SV6 Black Edition Ute in March. I would buy a Redline too if I had the cash.

Not too bad actually, the small windows on the sides are great, I can see through the back glass of the cab and out those windows and I can see straight out the back with the rear view mirror. The reverse camera is handy to. The bigger problem is as well reported, the A pillars are huge and in...

I haven't done any work on the camper set up as yet, just couldn't wait to get out there, so I bought a couple of cargo boxes that sit on top of my bed for travel, a table that slides under my bed and a folding chair a top all that. The factory tie downs for a tonneau are still there and used...

Black and Green for the win

. An on the road shot on my way back up into Central Queensland in the new car. Lots of detours to avoid the flood waters added about 4hrs to an already 10hr trip, but great to see the country green again. Also had to dodge some fires as the farmers guessed now was the perfect time to burn off.

Found a Photo with my first car, 76' LX Torana Some body had attempted to turn it into a UC? Sunbird, changed the dash and transmission. It made a lot of noise at the lights, went fast enough to impress the girls and that's all I cared about back then.

Thanks mate, will do. Next bit might be a while though.

Hi, its my understanding that the rear glass must stay in to be legal, its part of the monocoque construction

Hi, I couldn't tell you the technical specifics, I can tell you it's one piece fibre glass and is permanently bonded in a process that takes 3 days. Website might have more information. http://www.amcat.com.au/product-category/panelvan-canopys/ The antenna is still there, it's not affected by...

Hey all, so the 2 stage polish and most of the Opti coat are done, car will now be wrapped in 3M PPF, then back to Joe at Clean Getaway Detailing for the final Opti Coat and polish. Cannot wait to get back in this thing! VERY pleased with the polish, car looks phenomenal. Clean Get Away...

F Funny you should say Birdsville, I was just thinking about when a mate and I went there a couple of years ago. I thought at the time you really didn't need 4wd or even much clearance. Mum made it from Adelaide to Darwin in the late 70's in a station wagon with 3 kids before me, and we did...

Sorry yeah, should have been written better, I was trying to say that the whole car would be wrapped as opposed to a "clear bra" style. I reckon I'll get a lot of places, not much clearance sure, but when I think of many outback dirt and gravel roads they're fairly flat. I'm not trying to rock...

Do you mean am I wrapping the Speed Liner? I'm not, it will have some Opticoat trim protector to stop it fading. Just the green bits will get the PPF. If you mean why the speed liner/PPF, well. I want to be able to drive on terrible, outback, one lane, gravel and dirt roads without worrying...

Hi Sandman, The idea for this build is all about back country travel and road tripping, hence the over the top protection around the car. I did look at the bonnet protector but the consensus was that leaves dust etc get trapped behind and cause damage, same with the headlight protectors. I will...

Speed Liner done

I am having the front/rear bumpers, rocker panels and wheel arches sprayed in Speed Liner, whole car wrapped in 3M PPF and then Opticoated, should be compete in the next week.

some more photos before the transformation begins

Hey all, New to the forum and wanted to introduce myself. Name's Cameron, wanted to build my perfect 2wd roadtrippin machine. So far I have the S2 VF SV6 Ute Black Edition in Jungle Green, I had Amcat in Melbourne put on the "Sandman" canopy. I plan on building a camper in the back.
