I'm sure I took pix of the car at the Victorian ROVE event ... will have 
to look.

Plan A is to put my P6B on historic rego. To do that, I have to dump the 
Holley, Edelbrock and the wheels. ( I already belong to a historic 
registered club)

Plan B is to "go for broke" and do an LPG fuel only conversion.

The SD1 is my hoon car ... it now has a 4.6L with Haltech digital ecu.

I am planning a 4WD trip along the Canning Stock Route next year.
Fuel at the Indigenous Community (well 22 I think) is close to $5.00 a 
litre!!
