Default The official Intro

Hi all,

My name is Nat. Ive been lerking around the forum for a couple of months now watching my partners build threads, Jase, (CRYHSV) along with other things, I didnt want to do a formal intro until I could have a great car to bring to the table..

Couple of weeks ago I purchased an AU Falcon from a fellow Forum member who I wont mention for his privacy. Now initially my partner told me about this car before I ever saw it, and all I heard him say was "AU", at that point as far as I was concerned the Conversation was over. Ive never been big on the AU's unlike Jase, he in recent times has become very "emotional" towards them.
Well a couple of months back now, Jase and I where having lunch in Port Botany where we bumped into this forum member and his girlfriend. We ended up coasting back home together side by side in Jase's EL and this AU, going though General Holmes Dr under the tunnel, I heard this thing open up all 8 cylinders. At that point I was sold and within a fornight picked it up and its now in our posession.
The car performance wise is fine for me and I definatly do not require more power. Looks wise Id like to do a few things to it. Just to give it a subtle look. Id like to eventually add a series III body kit on it and also repray it to the AU's Gun Metel grey colour.
It has red leather interior in it which I dont have pics of but will get eventually.
