I got the nod on that house, but, Dad/Mum are pretty keen for me to stay here
I really don't know what to do.

Tough one Nik but a trail run staying on the property sounds like a good idea.
The olds would appreciate the effort Im sure.

'66 Charger Playboy car?
(Looks like a non standard colour)




Note the brand stamp on the block.

One of two remember, that's how they make the W configuration.


One block Alex.

Note that each bank has 8 pistons, two staggered rows of four at a 15deg angle (hard to see the angle in the pic). Each are capped with a single cylinder head.
The tow rows form a bank of eight and the two banks are angled at 72deg like a standard vee engine would be.

Golf V6 has a setup like this. One bank, one head but 6 pistons in a 15deg vee.

If I told you I was a compulsive liar, would you believe me?

I was going to say that, but I didn't want everyone to feel inferior to my technical knowledge....

Also, no idea about the Dooooodge. Just thought the pic was cool.

I thought they had pink Chargers? Is that even a Charger or am I way off.

I thought by the grille extending from one side to the other that it would be....?

Plenty of cars were available in pink from the factory, but this was normally for the smaller cars.

Holden had a few pinks in the early '70s (remember that our styling was based on US cars but a few years behind) such as "Strike Me Pink" and "Orchid Metallic".



Scooters are still available in pink.

Strike Me Pink was on GTR Torana's, in Adelaide they could barely sell them - my workmate (well true friend really) was offered one with houndstooth interior and all the boxes ticked when he went to trade his earlier model GTR. The pink was just too much for him also, so ended up with a four door that was slow as a wet week. He regrets the shit out of that decision. Brett knows who I'm talking about, we hear the story quite often.

He said his first GTR was his favourite car ever. He now drives an R-Design C30T Volvo - which is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!

For the guys that don't know.

Li was looking at a wedding magazine, Morgan and Katie happen to be on the front cover and there's a huge write up about them.
