VS Calais - Cooled L67 + T56 | VF SSV Ute
22, turning 23 in October.
Auto Electrician, qualified since September.


First car was a 2001 Holden Rodeo, 3.2l V6.

Second car was my VR Acclaim, still got it.

Now I've got my VS Calais, bought it in Jan 2011.

There has also been a few other cars before the Rodeo, just paddock cars. I've got a 75 Daihatsu F10 4x4, and Series 2 Land Rover LWB, and a KE70 Corolla. I've got plans for them all, but dunno how thats going to go ha.
