Hi,
I thought i would share some pictures of my ute seeing as I have seen so many nice cars on here. I have owned it for about 10 months and it gets driven about 3-4 times a week. I am loving all the positive comments i get from strangers where ever we go with her. Nearly everybody i talk to has some fond memories of an EK their old man, grandfather or brother used to have back in the day. And that's what I love about old cars. They make regular punters car enthusiasts because of the memories they have of them when they were younger.
Anyway she has a 186 with a trimatic. I don't have any grand plans for it yet. A disc brake upgrade on the front and that's about all. My main goal is to maintain it in the best condition possible and get enjoyment out of it for many, many years to come.
Enjoy.
Paul

Not all chemicals are bad. Without chemicals such as hydrogen and
oxygen, for example, there would be no way to make water, a vital
