Think that is a way off at the moment. I'll just cruise in my VG, 'til I've got the space and the money to built a full on race car. That Torana was launching with the fronts about 3 ft in the air. Sweet.

Close, Ade:
The first Torana model was a facelifted Vauxhall Viva and featured a two-door body, 12 inch (305 mm) wheels and a lethargic 1.1 L four-cylinder engine mated to a four-speed gearbox.

In 1968, the '69 Torana' was released, sometimes called the HB Series II. The model line up included a 4-door Sedan. The car was designed and built entirely in Australia.
