    The Monte is currently in the workshop getting a custom bodykit made up for it. Once its done there going for retrim and then the engine work. I like the montecarlo it sounds great with the twin 45mm carbs and the twin SS exhaust.

    My dad's mate for lamda motors (forgot the spelling) he owns that lanica with that ferrari engine it from last year he just got a Delta a while back very nice cars.

    Litlledino has a Monte, apparently it was owned by Alan Jones' mechanic who brought it to Aus in the early 80's, was gold is now red. Has lots of good gear on it (twin webers etc) better brake too. I think I saw 7000 in top once, great little car. Just like a slightly bigger X19. I'll see if he can post a pic.

    Yes the other Yellow G SE. Another older G. About 4-5 Countachs :D Acouple of older models no Miuras. Afew Ferraris, 550M, 328,348,355,360, dino, afew Lancia due to centenary. NO ZONDA!!! :( (tho i have seen it alot!!) plus lots of other random italian cars ppl may or maynot be interested in.

    I was there when all the Lambos left together :D The dude in the G SE, reved it, soo now I know how it sounds in real life :) haha.

    Great day, perfect weather, Im abit burnt. Had a quick ride in a LHD Lancia Integrale Evo, recommend AutoItalia for all.
