Normally a 'duplicate' thread that has been closed, with another starting so soon afterwards would be immediately closed, with the OP warned.
As mentioned in the initial post. post a pic, and MOVE ONWARDS - personal insults, & breaches of site T & C WILL result in thread closure, and action being taken against the offending members.

I'm prepared to let this thread have another life. Whether it continues, or whether it gets closed is up to you the members.
Breaches of site T & C WILL result in closure - another closure will be PERMANENT

PLAIN AND SIMPLE - you post off topic, or you get personal, expect the thread to be closed, with the offender(s) getting a holiday.

Additional rules?

-No chev badges, clear lights or stickers wow, yes, chev badges on a holden are stupid, same with lights...but its hardly "epic" any more, nor interesting.

Saw an early 80s Corolla today which was nothing short of being a fail. It looked like it came straight from the wrecking yard, yet it had extra wide front wheels sticking out the side with excessive camber. The front guards were bent from what looked like the wheels bottoming out onto them because the car looked lowered also.
