Paging Dr Ratbox... HR Holden gasser?

Post by Harv »

My memory is failing me. I thought I remembered some posts here of a HR Holden gasser, but after some searching I can’t find them.

Would have been 5-10 years ago. Bloke was building it, and I thought in Sydney. I seem to remember posts of him going nuts with a large hole saw to lighten some of the panel work. The car was being built to a really good standard.

Mick, anyone remember this? Was it Wot179 building it? Or am I imagining things?

Cheers,
Harv

i would have said that one belongs to Craig i would guess he still has it, he doesn't talk to me any more :( because i have differing political views to him :shock: :lol: not that i take that stuff very seriously which may have also disgruntled him

Dragging up a very old thread. Anyone know if WOT179 got the gasser completed? Looks like he has gone AWOL from the forum.

I remember the ute thread, and wot179 popping up on the GMH Torana forum, but not for a few years now.

i've spoken to Craig once in all this time (i dialed his number by mistake :lol: ) he was ok to talk to didn't talk cars but i would be very confident in saying nothing has been done to it or very little, he got heavilly into vintage BMX bikes and the bits and pieces i see on facebook he's still mucking about with them

Hope he gets around to finishing it. The concept was good, and he was definitely not frightened of the hole saw :)
