Hi I'm Ed from Derby.
As you may guess by my user name I'm not new to V8's just not new V8's.
I've got a 68 Firebird but want a decent daily driver. About 15k per year.

I'm settled on a Monaro, just need to find one!


Been to see a couple. One listed as stunning was anything but!!!!!

Another is a possibility, it needs:-

Strutt top mounts - easy enough ?

diff clunks a tiny bit - but think a bit of friction modifier will sort

bit of paint on stone chips - to make pretty

wheel refurb - easy enough when replacing tyres.

and the biggy looks like brake pipes - are they located drivers side below drivers seat I recall some rough looking pipes?

Any thoughts on above points / advice??

Thanks
Ed

The bigger job is the brake pipes , the mounts are not too much of a job to do and other bits including the mounts are normal for the cars
