Datsun 180b: thrashed to death
Was it orange in color?
The Y-man
Bit of a V8 fan have always owned at least one V8 since started driving.
1. XB Falcon 302V8
2. XD Fairmont Ghia 351V8
owned at same time as XD- 1980 Chryler Sigma (The Stigma)
replaced the stigma, still owned the XD,- VR Commodore Exec (Poverty pack)
then sold XD and VR and bought.
3 VX SS Commodore
4 BA Falcon XR8
5 Merc CLK430
Next on the agenda is either a CLK500, E500, VE Calais V V8 or FG Falcon GT.
The heart wants the GT, the head wants the Calais. The Merc's are nice but are older.
After four years of living in Docklands and using Flexicar I've just sunk a lump of money into a new Prius C.
In stock form not much different as the XB was 74 so no pollution gear at all really. The XD was modified a bit by the time i finished with it, so no comparison by the end. It was only getting about 200Km's round town from 85 litres of LPG in the END, stretched to about 375km on hwy. 4V valves, heads redone(ported, springs etc),ridiculous cam, extractors, 3inch single, dropped about 2.5inches. Most of that started out from a harmonic balancer needing to be replaced.How did you find the performance of the XD versus the XB, given that the XD would have had full anti-pollution and the XB nearly none?
So we might see you at the monthly meets at other places than Mitcham?

Daily Driver - WM Caprice 6.0 Litre V8. We make a lot of trips to our home down the South East and always have the trailer loaded on the trip down.
That V8 power gets us there quickly, safely and extremely comfortably -
For weekends and fun trips 1969 Mustang Grande Coupe. Lots of power from the V8 engine. Has Dakota Digital Dash, Custom Upholstery and soon to have TCP Rack and Pinion Steering -
Our cute little 68 Mustang 6 Cyl Coupe. Here it is winning an award at the 2010 Mustang Nationals -
Here are a couple of our 1969 Mach1 Mustangs that we recently restored. We took them to the 2012 Mustang Nationals in Newcastle and stopped in at bathurst to try them out around the track -
Stangman.
In NZ I had a WRX. Planning to buy a new VF SS Commodore next year when it comes out.
Nathan Birch has a genuine supercar, a Nissan GTR, my eventual dream car when I have some serious cash from my developments.
