Welcome.

Make your self at home. There's beer in the fridge. Somehow this site got blessed with lots of good people. Most of who are here to learn and share their knowledge. What are the most respected mucle cars in NZ?

Hi Mike,
tx for your reply.
MMM most respected muscle car in NZ -DEPENDS who one speaks to ofcourse.I would say amongst the camaro,firebird,mustang,charger,challenger,chevelle,corvette. Then maybe less a muscle car there are lots of impalas and a few rivieras.
Myself ,mike, I am removing a 307 (olds)from my 86 caddy brougham and putting in a 66 olds toro motor.At present I am cc ing the heads and doing some porting /polishing.
cheers mike

yeah my parents are from tonga, i was born in california. are team can be so much better but alot of our international players (which is alot) choose to play for the country that pays their checks during the world cup, i think that's not fair. good luck with the build:biggrin:

Orange is about 20 minutes from my house. The 200R4 is a great trans when properly built. Just know, that if the TV cable isn't adjusted correctly, you will fry it out the first time you go full throttle.
