my JB Starion

Post by Justice »

Hi. Here is a picture of my JB Starion that I have completely restored body wise. It was stripped down. Front guards replaced, doors pulled off and rear guards all done. It is fitted with 17X 8 and 9" gold mags. No spacers. I bought this car off David Cox of Redzone.
This is the 3rd Starion I have had. I bought a new red JA in 1984 and when the JB model came out, I did not like it at the time so I traded it in on another white old stock JA model. They are a very nimble car. I have had many various sports cars over the years and I believe these are up there with them. I had a Porsche Turbo for a time and this is a more enjoyable car to drive. I say this because you only really appreciated the Turbo until you were doing 160 KPH. We all know where that leads.
Cheers
Mike

Great to see a restoration project!
You and Al are in the groove at the moment!
Nice work! Some nice touches! Have you got more shots?
What's happening with the side decals? Any luck with getting them done?
