sadly this sort of 'resource' is disappearing due to high scrap values.

That is criminal to see all those FJs like that.
It is OK for someone to own whatever they like, but to willingly let un-replacable vintage and veteran vehicles be destroyed like that, then it just sucks big time.

TA toranas had starfire motors in them, they look like a 186 with two pots missing.

Don't think so. These were only 1300's I think where as the starfire while it felt like a 1300 was actually a 1900! I think these came later in the UC Torana as the "sunbird" and of course the 4 pot Commodore. Also I think they were of the 202 not the 186 as well.

You could be right, got a TA in the club and I'm sure he said it was a starfire motor.(I haven't had a look yet) I have seen them in commodores and sunbirds. 186/202 they look much the same.
