I shall take some of these ideas on board with the Torana.
Isn’t it, just! Even with the extra stuff over the preplanned list, it’s moved forward very, very fast.

It’s made me realise how long it had taken me to get to where I was and that I was likely to miss this season as well, had I carried on ploughing through on my own. :oops:

Rear number plate mounting looked wrong to me withe the plate obscuring the number plate light. Turns out this bracket is only used on the 73-74 cars with impact bumpers, 70-72 cars don’t have it. The use of a license plate frame with only upper mounting bolts needed an adaptor plate making.

Did you not like the adapter plate I made out of the old number plate? :D It looks similar!
