I found it trolling through Sigma-Galant.com last night. I went back but there is a few comments but nothing more. Here is the link

awesome effort - i don't like it, 1 holden shape is bad enough, let alone 2, but good luck to the builder
they took a chance, threw the dollars at it and put in the blood, sweat and tears

hot rodding is what makes cars great - even if there is only 1 masterpiece among 1000 attempts - at least we see something different

That has been around for years and is the epitome of the classic VN. Instead of a VN engine and suspension conversion into an EK, someone thought it would be smart to lop the front and rear of the EK and graft it onto the VN.

yeah I agree with you, I personally can't stand it, but good on him for having a go and doing something different.

Would like to see the build pics actually to see the extent of the modifications.
