You can just imagine what the depth of the mud bath is ay! These shots are mostly the Sandy Hollows and the smaller but steeper is the Bunyips cave. I had a hilux with all the trimmings that found out it wasn't quite unbreakable trying to swim through the mud bath.........blessing in disguise cause now i've got my troll :-)

Yeah wish it was mine! Absolute BEAST i've been in a hot lap of the race track as a passenger and couldn't get the grin off my face, the wife went for a hot lap too, same result. Can't remember all the specs but rekon 350ci and 44" tyres could be wrong on the tyre size. you can go on you tube riverland challenge or big air at loveday and see this weapon hit the table top jump in the "jump for cash"......................... awesome!!!!!!!!!

Cheers Tavi, ive pulled off some crackers this year. I thought iwas growing the worlds hottest, the bhut jolakia (ghost chilli) but now ive just heard theyve found hotter again, the butch trinidad scorpion. So next year i'll have to source them out then make a super sauce hahhahahahahhaha ooowwwwwwwwww!!!!

The partly disassembled car is an aussie icon the Torana, this is a 1977 lx which will eventually be running a 5ltr v8

That torrie will be a sweet ride when its finished mate, and they can be worth a lot of money now too, ive got a bit of a soft spot for them myself, also owned a couple of toranas (last one for over 15yrs)

Shes in pretty good nic ive been stripping and prepping etc for 5+yrs now, got a full set of hanging panels when i bought it, the interior had been done already. Still toss up regularly on keepin the six and doin a sick six or v8 decision decisions

At least after 5yrs any hidden rust should have raised its ugly head by now.



Can't beat the sound of a tuff V8 with dump pipes mate, but if you wanna keep it a six , i can 100% recommend fitting a RB30ET, best thing i ever did to my torrie by far !:thumbup:

I know mate the sound of a 650 double pumper suckin in the environment and blastin out twin 2 1/2" pipes is music to the ears. Had a tuff lx hatch a while back now and am still kikn myself for sellin it
