Another rare NSW Starion up to Brissie :( But nice to hear it's being restored!!

The car is a good base, however the cracking under the bonnet next to the guards is annoying! Alignment too is strange at the front.
A set of rear spoilers may need to be picked up from the US to sort out the bubbling present in them.....

All JD's need to be multipointed IMHO...110kw!
Silver on a JD looks great!! Just needs a few black interior bits for the maroon interior.

yeah it's been in a front ender at some stage obviously, it will be having a trip to a panel beater to fix some body issues.. not many JD's up here mal, i only know of 2 others in qld (one of them is a piece of crap that i'm not sure even exists anymore, and one of them has been turned into a rally car)..

i think he's gonna leave the interior as is (he hates it now but i reckon he'll come around to it's pimp ways) LOL

so finally i can take a pic of a JA, JB and JD + widebody out the front of my workshop :)

Yeah, I was a bit surprised that he would go for that over the red GSR-V with black interior... :shock:

...... umm
In Brisbame only a short time (15min?), then I was going to catch the airtrain to GC with my wife as I am participating in a sporting event Friday, Saturday and Sunday, then home Monday morning....... If anyone is driving a Starion to GC on the Thursday morning I will pay fuel :D
I was mainly offering to bring a couple of bits over to save courier/post fees and hadn't thought I may run into a couple of members.

Will be staying at the Gold Coast, Thurs,Fri,Sat, Sun nights :)
