Olden Holden is in HANTKE PLACE Welshpool, WA. There is a kind of yard at the end of Hantke Place, with a panel beating/spray-painting place visible. Drive in and look to your right. It's called Classic Olden. The bloke who runs it is called Bernie. He has a ratty-looking oxidised red (-ish) FJ ute that is low and has wide rears & a stock dashboard totally covered in beige carpet. Despite that, he's a very pleasant bloke. Used to work on jets at
Ansett before it crashed. :shock:

AAAAAH - THAT place ! The bloke who owns the joint is Tony- he drives the red FJ ute and is also building a 2 door EK , he lives just around the corner from me and came around last thursday night for a look at my 2 door.
I started with nothing and still have most of it left.

Where did you end up getting the lowered stubs from.

Leave the white walls on the wall.

Go the Hopsters.

Now ask Trev how his kidneys are from his being that low....mine aren't much better :lol: :lol:

Torana diff does make a big difference, be good to see the Hopsters on if nothing more than to say put the whitewalls back on :roll:

Keep at it, you're on a roll now.
