WOW 3rd gear @ 3000rpm equalled 10 KPH the 4.5 was a manual.
Low 1st was insanely slow

Yeah George said gearbox wouldn't work, but we did some more digging, it has the 4l60e gearbox but with a transfer case bolted on the back. Which is the same as every ss commodore in that era minus the transfer case. Haven't driven it far yet, it feels very Toey though, going to be hard to drive it reservedly lol. This was the right price and condition to hey me 12 months, essentially I paid an extra 1500 bucks for a car I can drive, rather than 2-2500 for a wreck where motor and gearbox are only things useable. Also not being a rwd makes me feel more confident it hasn't been used as a thrash wagon.

Few weeks ago now, but finally got some 33s on 16’ sunnies, instead of the 31s on 17’ patrol rims.
Went on holidays and came back to 2 punctures, so got online for some 2nd hand 33’s. I personally like the look better!! Only $700 for the 5! Will do the trick for now!!
Also diff breathers arrive in the mail tomorrow, so kind of looking forward to fitting them this week!!

Started cleaning it after returning from the Cape last night. It was a lot more fun getting it dirty than it is getting it clean again - that red dust gets everywhere and is not easy to get rid of.
