sorry if this was already mentioned but whats goin on with the front end, you obviously need disk brakes. some notification would help as i might be interested in this style if it retains the original front end.
cheers matty

Hi matchew , the front end will have LX Torana discs , callipers etc , mounted using a CRS adaptor kit.

cheers

Thanks for putting the progress pics up Stuart. It's starting to come together nicely.

Looking forward to seeing it at the All Holden Day

so the engineers happy with the disc adaptors, not telling what you should or shouldn't do, but the ones i've dealt with always want ball joint front more than disc brakes
this is just an enquiry

I don't how it would be passed with that front end, even with discs, its not ball jointed.......

...... and engineers don't like that.

Just floating the comment.
Just another thought will the drag link for the steering clear the sump.
