But I am currently seriously looking to sell my 04 HSV (Holden) Grange for one of the 3 below.

Note not the actual cars below, 2 of those belong to guys on here, but reasonable versions of the same, good 20 footer paint jobs and would swap to brand new running gear (LS3 drivelines).....

Buick - looks stunning, gorgeous but rare hard to find and not cheap in good condition.

Lincoln, looks sinister, tough, cheaper to find but it's a Ford....

Olds Jetstar 88 Coupe - I love these, but super rare, in fact only ever seen 1 for sale


I perosnally think the Lincoln would suit better for daily use (and family / kids) and parked outside....


So this thread just popped back up, I saw I responded in 2011. Well in 2012 sold my daily and bought the actual 61 Buick in this pic above. Shipped it over here and have been using it as my daily for the last 6 years. I've racked up just over 100,000 miles on it in 6 years. It's about to do a 2,000 mile road trip interstate in 3 weeks time. In that 6 years it's only got 2 door dings
