My Mate Kel's Place.

Post by Kev »

Mopar Sunday at Willowbank was on yesterday, report to follow.

The post event party was up at a mate Kel's place. Here's a few pics of what's up there. Another mate Dave lives on the acreage and between them they dabble in all things Mopar and more!

Kel's in the earthmoving game, here's his VC Val EarthMover. 10s car with a 360 running on methanol;

Here's a Barracuda in for a 440 and general tidy up;

Image

Here's Dave's Petty Blue Duster getting a Blown Hemi;

Image

A 1980 Chrylser Lancer now with Dodge V6 power;

Dave still has custody of the all alloy Slant 6 Hyperpack Valiant as reported on about 5 years ago!

Image

Nifty grinder stand made out of 1 1/2 Hemi 6 crankshafts!

Factory VE ute I believe Dave.

EDIT: I think that they came from the factory with just the bumper ends not the full bumper. Looks better like this with a full length bumper in my opinion.

That is a great name too.
As a kid I once was taken as a passenger in a green LX Torana Hatch with a 350 in it called the Greenhouse Effect. always thought that name was good. But Gangreen is better.
