That holden looks based around both our FD and FE victor / VX / Ventora range by the looks of it? Front end looks FE, rear looks FD.

When I was over there it was clear what Holden matched closely to what UK Luton piece of shite.

I was driving a late 90's Holden Commador which was basically an Omega.

I saw them based on FE's, Carltons etc.

Nice holden and mustang....horrific Brock thingy. Saw loads of tidy Holden and Fords when I was over there recently....actually rather depressing when you compare it to the rusty shite we have over here.

I still want a Vauxhall Ventora but I know I'm ill. :)

No! The Ventora was epic in FE form. Proper engine as well.

Remember this? Big Bertha with Gerry Marshall at the helm. I remember sitting on Paddock Bend at Brands and watching him throw it sideways through there. A right hero!

Yeh I remember it.

That's kind of the look I was going for. If you have a search for FE Ventora's not many folk seem to have done anything decent with them.....finding a decent one looks difficult too. There is one local to me that I hope I am still sort of head of the queue for. :)
