Greetings...

I guess a few people know me already - I use the same U/N on many boards - but I'll post an intro anyhow.

My name's Julius - and I have two cars - one slow, one slower.

My DD:

2004 Pontiac GTO converted to Holden Monaro:



More pics here.
Mod list (on Cardomain) here.

The other's a 1981 Cadillac Eldorado - my garage queen.

(FYI it's Holden, MYIX8UR8)

As for the conversion:

New bumper, grille, front wiring harness & driving/fog cluster
New front fender signal markers and wiring
New badges for: quarter panels, grille (included in the bumper), trunk, airbag, dash, wheel centers and door sills (these last I'm waiting on).

I'm also waiting on seat de-badging and IP replacement.

As for the rest, it's the same as the VZ ('05+) Monaro, except for the rear bumper and the LHD setup. The single-sided rear bumper is the same as the VY ('00-'04) Monaro.
