Aussie Muscle Mate!!!

That's right. 98.9 Northwest FM, urine car talk with many J

joining the studio with Adam Grasso and of course, we just had James James from Members movies, and this is movies that you have to get used to saying that now.

Yeah, it's it's it's got a ring to it.

I'll what else can I just say that?

There was a queue Lazarus With Goodbye Horses.

There isn't? I played that was because of

Melbourne cup, please, please don't shoot the horses that last please tricky. Sometimes, I don't Treat the

horses. Very well, you also might

recognize its from The Silence of the Lambs, soundtrack, where Buffalo Bill is dancing. How can I put it across

dressing? I guess is the very polite

Community radio are putting it. Can I just confirm men versus

movie? Don't actually eat the movie.

Dear, No, I fight the movie with my fist bare fists.

No glove, and I beat it, and I say, entertain me, engage me.

And if it doesn't, I just knock its teeth out.

Never hit you back. No, of course not.

So, movie is the hits? Well, welcome, Adam.

Hang on. No, not bad.

Not bad. Tonight's topic.

We're talking about is what I've been doing to talk about for the last. I don't know.

Seven covid-19 is their lighting 19th or 20th week here on our money. I put on Northwest of them, it

is Ozzie muscle. It is a, this is a great topic.

I've only got ads in the studio, he's a because your car guy everyone's been asking muscle. Yeah.

Like on occasion if you're like, you know, you're in your job guy or you're a guy, you like, you have some soft spot for a bit as you muscle and to tell me what about our personal favorites, what we potentially see as though you know just all time classics and and just general chitchat about them.

So um obviously obviously atoms begin to eat because these cars and begin to lose all your muscle.

He comes from a big kreisler background, the old yelled charges, I'm sorry. Tell, tell, tell us what you

bought your Australia. Well, I'll go back a bit

further, my dad's charges. So he had a 74 Vijay, and this

is talking about talking to him about a recently.

Few little details that he forgot to mention, you know, when I was a bit younger and he goes, I yeah.

Put fat tires on the back, repainted the interior.

And I from white to black, as I got, you know, eyes.

So that was pretty cool. Apparently was Yellow in color

at the jelly beans, it's the 265.

Yeah, I don't know, I think you did much engine work, but yeah, it was still cool car. Unfortunately, he let that go

for fit, so, yeah. But otherwise, it was pretty

cool and fast forward. She's I don't know how many

years 30 years. Let's say, for example, in my

brother goes out and buys one. Coincidentally, I'll teach ya

coincidentally with my help, our 08, a finder's fee of man, I should have got a bit of a bonus there or something.

You know, at least let me have the car for a few years and there you have it. Yeah.

No, he coincidentally got it off a teacher that was at our school so I saw it. One day, I took a photo of it

showed him he's like I yes sweet and eyes and this teachers happen to live around the corner from my parents place.

And he just wanted to sell, he was just, he was looking, he had another project, they should undergo, was a VJ, know your place in nature. I think there's a VH Pacer

because after different rear ends, I look it could have been a VH of EJ Pace, but nevertheless, it was an original Pacer, which he stripped bare metal Resto.

You know really good job on our Embassy in that was pretty cool.

He did a few cars. Yeah, he did a few had the

Mustang as well. He was 65.

Yeah. But he never actually risto

restored the charger. He only did The the, the Pacer,

so the charger was pretty much as is, I think it had a blow over really early in its life or maybe later than 0 interior was just redone but otherwise, it's a pretty original car, isn't it?

Isn't it called? I've seen a personally, it's

really clean car. Well, um, yeah, that's, that's

good to get into the ink into the charges that this side of things because we are gonna be talking about charges.

Do it said it is Asia, it is the only muscle special will start off with old-school as you must do.

We've got some likes on our Facebook page and I put it out to our great lessons at home. What what, you know, what was

your muscle cars and their into a good friend of mine.

Jason Todd, Big Ups to him. He listed a few, he listed the

GT. Hate to GT h 0x y lo, you know,

the phase 3 SL are 5,000, which is a, which is a cracking little car gtac. One obviously another Toronto

and e49 charger which is As I was going to bring up with you, it's WGT Phase 2 and the X, a GTR, po option 83, which is a, which we'll talk about a few weeks ago.

Is a really, really cool, really cool car, bit of history.

But for that car, it was, it was pretty much supposed to be a that they used all the old, the old spare parts being from it from the face for. And that's so, I'm gonna clean

up the warehouse really pretty much.

Pretty much just just just saying, oh, I will, I will decide to to check these parts in the car.

Boom. So he's put some good ones in

there. They 49 obviously for you.

Is it one of your all-time favorite card?

It is a special car. Be 49 was I guess there was a

few models that it was nothing. There was the 37 E38 e49 little

bit, there was a few there and then you had the seven 70s as well. Do you believe in particular

though that that was, that was even a, a last drink that the last incarnation of the iits and obviously they stopped.

It was funny. There's quite a few models ever.

The only lasted one model range of H.

So yeah, that was Triple Weber's.

So everything was 55 to 65 of the triple Weber's.

Everything was finally true in the after you know the previous models and everything and had the big tank 260 liter tank in the boot is pretty cool. 225 usual 24 is kilowatts the head

that they had a lot of in a as well.

They went straight sex in a they and they actually they Could have made more. Yep, they could have made more

training, you know, this there be cams, whatever.

But back then that was incredible for factory performance. I mean it will start fights but

they'll quicker than any other car.

They were they were. Yeah, I think they were the

quickest na6 up until the blade servers.

Yeah, they were. And that's, that's, that's a

long time. It's a long time for everyone to

catch up to crisis R&D, from back in the 70s, which is still today still tight a quicker. Like it'll still Rose to pull

force and quote 14, you know, second quarters, it'll do it all day and, you know, it was it was a very special.

It didn't get the recognition it deserved until recently.

Yeah, it's, it's only started recently to be okay.

This was a cracking car and you know, it's finally getting the respect it kind of deserves. Yeah.

So that's that's true. They they were cheap as chips.

They weren't as recognized because what they did, My dad, even when baathist the GTA chose One Bathurst.

Were they still, they're not still cheap as chips?

Oh, hell no. Back in the day though, Juve is

back in the day. Let's say I'm in look it wasn't

exactly cheap as chips, you know, an average wage back then was bananas really. So I think an RT.

This is only going rough lift up my head.

I think about three-and-a-half to four grand thereabouts, which is a lot of money, but it was, it was.

But then you could buy a pic, you could pick up a standard charger for like two and a half Grand.

So to prevent double in price, doubled, close.

They've, they've quadrupled. I mean not that sounds Whenever

there is an affordable price. It, but let me say that you look

at like, a free sample of GTs is like pretty much double Center Commodore anyway, so that's true.

So it's in terms of performance in that.

It's pricings kind of been the same kind of thing, but back then those things were animals with no safety features.

They would stop once. And the next Corner brake fade

this. Yeah.

The brakes were going, that's it.

Forget about it. You have to use them if you like

it in break, then again, it just makes you appreciate how that would driving these things at Bathurst.

And that they'll put a should put the pretty much straight fact you don't power steering, a personal just and the seats.

He's never didn't even have break boosters.

Really? No brake booster has announced.

He's so those are the way, the would have been power.

Assisted them. That there you go.

There you go. Look, we're gonna go to a quick

break and we'll continue this right after this.

That's right. 98.9 Northwest FM your backhand Caught up with

Maddie. Jay still in studio with Adam

and James, obviously, James again, to give him a given big endorsement for him through his new show.

You're telling people you're ignoring us as movies every Tuesday night at 6 p.m. get on it people now.

So he's going to be putting up a podcast as well, and I'll try click on to that and my Facebook page, and if you haven't got my Facebook page, it's um, it's uh, talked with many J en.

Toi Kitty rawr Q UE. You can talk as, you know, as in

pun intended with the Aussie accent we have.

Our walk but cat or cut catwalk, right?

Anyway, back on back on all your muscle old school muscle will we've just talked about a 49 which was actually one of my personal favorites as well. I'm a, I've since Grasso got me

into them, I've come from really rancid on the, it looked pretty close to the forward. Straight six is coming.

They are, they are and and and and that's why I'm going to magazine. Actually, it was a, they call

him the six on the gods and They had that a 49 next to our 34, gdr and be a typhoon. It came when it came out and

they said pretty much if the charger was built today it'll be a typhoon. It'll draw overhead cam.

Yes I just the Pistons a huge that.

Yeah but um yeah that'd be monsters.

I'd love to see it reincarnated as a new engine but it won't happen. Unfortunately, whatever.

Unfortunately it is our IP to our to our country, to our Motoring, - so thing here. So but it will get, we get back

to it. So we'll start with Holden

Holden said, some crackers over the over the years, especially with old school, but they're old school muscle.

I want to classify old-school up to about, let's say 1990, like there's a cut as a kind of a night as a color as a kind of a 1994 me. What am I one of my favorites

would be it got a lot of crap at the time because this is a later one but the The director HDD to Richter The VL director.

Yes, yeah. The car that basically got Brock

and gmh to have a massive split had their energy polarizer when I go into that today. But that car was engineered with

independent rear suspension out of a car.

From a thing, I thought was an Opel Karl come up with the, with the Opie was, but it was it was pretty tacky carve.

It was based on a Calais. So I was a big fan.

That the body it was a bit ostentatious but as they as they all work, but having said that the walkie, they're the real Walking straight after I was a really cool car going back a bit further. I've always kind of liked that

I'm going to be soft but softer honors, so I'm obviously an AIX if you can if you can find, you find one.

If it's not a mock-up, if it's on a mock-up and I supposed to do just cool. I mean, like today, they you see

around you like, well it's an anal sex.

You're a big trying to find out, so I do like tyrannis their their sick little cars. I mean, they're small, they are

very smart, people put in 350s and then striking him and then even bigger, it's insane. I remember, God told me, he's

all man how to just a basic Toronto and he put some monster engine it. First time we driving out, he

put his foot down to keep the chassis, the the amount of torque your car and you need basic rolled the car.

So he, you know, unless you did unless you would have done this, he didn't tell you So, how weak the car, wash, but she will strengthen up a bit but yeah, so, but yeah, definitely, no necks as my friend Jason was saying, on our Facebook page, actually, won the junior detox. You won an SLR 5000, which you

are a big fan of. Yeah, that they are.

They they are see, they're very cool.

I also kind of liked I'll just forget that we're all going to bike now. The gee I hope what

But the tutor ones but they look cool and you know what probably you know it's a valiant thing again but the Valiant coops the the two-door vein coops they look they look almost a spitting image of the. The menorah is the two doors,

maybe a little bit longer they had by a whisker.

So that if anything more rare Then a lot of, a lot of other cars out there because not a lot of them survived.

They look amazing. They look sick.

Yeah, they doing. And anyway, those are those

Myers. I thought the later ones had

like 350 shelves in them and stuff, so, so, so they actually got up in got up and went pretty well, pretty well.

But, um, yeah, for me, it was always, always, always a bit of a fan of the Toronto. It was a really cool little car.

Very Nimble, especially about this thing was, was just, you know, cutting Corners like no tomorrow.

I think Brock said, believe it or not.

Here on the last lap of I forgot, I forgot which Throne I was but he lost life. He said that he saw the lap

record in it and you know, of the race anyone.

But like six, love zombies do something insane amount of space but I'm yeah. Any any Holden's few fancy

particular adds any Holden's holding Nam?

It looked at the Manor has a sick day.

They're cool. They're cool cars but look back.

Then what dominated from the Hollins is the piranhas in the Narrows, I mean, what the odd Kingswood with?

Rio? I don't know, like an old man,

it's a magical means we're cool. I don't know.

Did they come options with many performance things?

And many performance more, like a beach?

They were doing their thing. They still came in and ate, but

look, I don't know, dude. Yeah.

They would have been cool looking cars, unless a new fuse together with nothing. But they, they're actually,

they're so cool assume and it's cool.

Moving over to Welcome to the arch, nemesis of Holden, the blue oval Now, people people at home, know that I'm a bit of a bit of a four-channel, I'm not gonna lie, but you don't say it.

I say, but they have had some real memorable ones.

As as we mentioned previously, the GT H, 0 obviously the phase 3 phase 2. But I'm a little bit about some

of the Forgotten ones. I reckon the XA ESP is just as

one of the one of the coolest cars to come at her to come out of Ford. Okay?

It wasn't that it was the most faster thing.

But with the 5.8 the, the big claim And and it had two, she'll

seats to time body work. The amount of options that I

came with because it was basically, if a monkey, I just just, just just all things Runnings.

Premium Warriors. Yes and Body Care.

Bilstein, shocks, and full of our suspension.

Picked it out. It was a cool car.

And now people have realized because about 10 years ago, that these cards, you can still pick up like 10 grand even a few years ago, a few years over the earlier that you can get.

I saw one on a unique cars magazine, like on the ones.

They got away. It was like I was like 4 grand

for and it was a 5.8. Now you'd be looking in the 36.

Now I think of it, didn't we recently seen on for 80 grand?

Yeah, I'd agree. Yeah, we do too.

That's and that's insane. That's some, I don't think

there's anything in ESP is there yet but not it's like 80 grams worth but it's it's you know, what they're worth, what someone's willing to pay. And if someone wants that

they'll pay 2 Grand. Yeah, that's it.

After the end of that. So you're right some cars, only

worth as Someone's going to pay for it, so if someone paid against I'm going to buy it. So XD XD, initech CHP, is

actually, we're pretty cool as well.

Going back a bit further. I've always liked XP coops x, b

cubed. X PT Cruiser.

Just, you can't go past the xaxb coops.

Yeah, they just a sec. There.

They are 60 car here. Are going, looking good.

And they're rare. Yep.

Did it very rare? I mean, when I say rare, I mean

rare. Three average person.

Just got, I'm just gonna go out and buy an x.

A XB Coupe. You know, it's gonna find one in

the local paper on castles. Good Luck, Good Luck.

Good Luck. Good Luck.

Funny a clean one for a good price because it coll clean ones are like, yeah! 80, 90 100 Grand now and they're

all done. Right.

This SEC car do they only ask? Because I mean, look, it was his

name is going on here about Eric Bana and, and he crushed it, but he repaired it, and it's all, it's all good again, but that was a cool car. It was, you know, a friend of

mine. You know, Steve the electrician

has you cruise with him one night?

Nice? Yeah.

And he's like he's like a plastic car so they just look cool. I mean they're fattening ready

for the track those things they were they'll Track Pack back in the day and and then you're also you got like the AC Cobra switch which will kind of which were really cool as well.

So they're like a limited run from Ford and again with their with their rpos as well. But yeah.

Also, I want to say the hecho face for not many people know about. I think the only Release four of

them didn't didn't like one good destroyed and one was in a something like that. So they all had their kind of

the whole concept. But there is something one or

two note like in the it like in existence.

I mean, I think the bout and family, you know, that dude, I think they've got one of their Fleet and it's yeah it's that was going to be like the be all and end all of Asia muscle cars until the Supercar scare. So what did they have in it?

By the it just did. It was a four-door.

It wasn't it. Yeah, I remember it was pretty

much a spitting image of the xw. Yep.

Ex-wife. I think they came to the cage as

well. In fact, yeah, they were it was,

it was like a legit just, it was 160 miles an hour, you know.

And that's exactly why I didn't tell you because I am crazy.

Yeah. Yeah, cool.

It was quite a bit of an animal. But yeah that there's been a few

more, a few more from from back in.

I'd say from back in the 80s you could go a bit more techy with like turbo V8 turbo, you can go, you know, because they are very popular, especially kill a turbo in these days in in Cali, turbo trim you looking at 30k for a clean one like that one hasn't been like BT 122 to its death. There's plenty of options.

I mean, I think there's more BT ones now than they were actually manufactured. Yeah, and and the same goes for

XY. Wise, and xx x w tons of

mock-ups. There's so many mock-ups.

I mean, they just grabbed a standard Falcon 500, I'm pretty sure it's another fairmont's filled with you have a Fairmont.

A lot of them, a lot with the 351, they just slapped the, the goodies on it. And you can buy tons of tons of

the reproduction Parts knowing where you can get it absolutely everywhere. See, any guy in the dog can

build in the shed and off you go, you gotta gtha.

Tommy said that, it is all it was awesome.

You know why? Because you actually drive it

and enjoy it, whereas you take out of do th OU be like, oh my God, I'm It is like coming to steal someone's going to make it. This is take, this was sold a

few years ago for like a million bucks.

Technically, it's still like well yeah it's still a five hundred thousand dollar car today, but you know it's that I don't get the drift during driven, like there's always a mock up on. You can just like thrash the

crap out of it and say yeah, it's a mock-up it's only worth 60 Grand anyway. Regardless and every work with

as much as that if we build it the next weekend, whatever?

Yeah. So like I got a good man.

I'm on I work here. He's that.

Is that a XT and he put it to it too.

To like, it was a family and you made a fool, just JT a matter of Duty replica. Anyhow, mr.

Crowder. I think, and he enjoys it, you

know, and he's like, it's a car to be driven.

He's like, you'd be too scared to take a real one out.

Yeah. So, um, so the other see,

anything wrong with a mock-up as long as it's done, right?

And as long as you as it's going to be enjoyed, you know, so in your that's what it comes down to the it does you got to kind of sit in the garage. I mean.

Yeah, you probably enjoy it puts a smile on your face, but when you actually drive it, take it out.

People. Look at that school.

It is as I Cool. It is called Oregon the whole

XA. XB XC looking probably would be

my favorite. Like my favorite generation of

force because they were just, they were just those, the fat looking car like they'll cool. But having said that those same

time as I can hear that their the charges and that like they will kind of have a similar shape, they'll look just thinking about it and just going back on it.

All the coupe's. Yes, he had the X, a XB XC and

you had a that's forward covered, right?

He got the Croc Valentine Chrysler.

You got the the charger and you had the coupe's, then you had holding, they had the GTS, the coupe's there.

I mean, all the Coupes were sick.

They'll cool. Look at that point when you

think of a sports car, right? You say someone I have a sports

car straight away to do. It comes to your head two-door

coupe. Part of the likely power.

Yeah, massive amounts of power to.

But I mean these days it's like turbo or biturbo V8 and this that, but back then it was like, oh yeah, a big V8 or of massive straight sea Explorer. So I mean that's cool.

Everyone had their coops back then.

It was pretty cool and at the end of the day I'm you know times have changed but we can still appreciate those guys know. I like like if we're moving

forward because we've only got an hour show tonight the you know the manaro when they brought it back, there was a massive hit because you know, because it was it was a to do muscle car again and it started sorting gray kind of salt in them in the states. As I was the GTO and it's yeah,

if would have done that, what about like a to do Falcon back?

You to reminisce of the XA XB XC 90 days, it would be able to be a massive hit even when Ric, I mean, let's say current Damon arrows. Let's say from say 0 for, I

think it came out no for their about up and up until the last one. They still hold their value

holding value variable. I mean, and you think they're

just a tool Commodore but at the end the day you got your options like that. Like the CV 8?

Yes. You see the six?

Yeah. Yeah.

This is, the was CBO, does a cool?

Yeah. I'd rather they are going to

lose our connection Erica and burnt orange car looks soft.

Yeah, it was that I wasn't a fan of the Bonnet Scoops.

Like the Bonnet in the the speed horse is a nice.

But yeah another they did look and local.

The actual speed runs get there. They they did grow me.

I'll become a fan of him. In the end, there was a nice

one. I used to drive all the way to

the ring with every day for work and there was one that was just the start of the final copy shop.

Every day, I must be known as car.

Jesus was nice and it had like the backlash would like to had was this Series 2. So it will help was all tinted.

It was a tough car and it looked nice and in the wheels are had CV CV. A said.

Yeah. And I'd probably totally get one

of those. I'm a big run by holding you

invite. Yeah.

I'd buy one of those or buy Malou.

I'm a I love my lose. I didn't buy him a GU.

Come on me. IMA get my I would buy him a

loo. Okay.

By Malou over the Bible. Okay.

Oh Viola Lu / / a big, A or B, fgt theyre.

Yeah. Okay.

All right, even if GTA would you buy Pursuit I lied by mother ever Pursuit bull. No Heather.

Hot lose. Okay.

The latest Bollywood the LSA supercharged engine, okay.

It's just it's a killer car boat there because they aren't be car but they cheese, they see the handles.

Oh yeah. All right, yeah say I'll have

whatever pursuit in our and I don't like I'm at yeah I'm an Aussie going. I'm going, I'm a car guy but I'm

a I'm a Ford car guy through and through as you guys know, I love my lose though, I don't have my Lou, I do in my dream garage and balloon be there next to a Pursuit.

Okay, surfaces. Yeah, but I'm Ali would

definitely be there like a gin F1 with a gen-f, you know, LSA.

One would be on point. Actually, I'm not going to lose

every day. I regularly put a straight-6

bearing, their strength is very, very hashtag by the world people actually, where the world now it's that they just a dope con.

It then mean they see I'm good. Look at the by modal exhaust,

they just sound tough. I got super Jeep, I work with

you here. She G actually born even bought

a supercharger anybody but us series 1, JN F, and it's just it's Thunder. It's it's what it stands for

anyway. So it's it's it's a cool car.

Cool car. Our talk, a lot of modern-day

cars will get Ryback to after this break.

We're going to go to go to a quick song but keep that in mind. Modern-day Ozzy from 9 1990

onwards. We'll be right back on car.

Talk, you're back on car took with manage a third Goods.

Good discussions during the break during the break, my brothers told Adam to get her goodies at get his ass into gear and get a new car but I think you might have an announcement for my brother and piss you off very shortly getting into more.

Getting into modern modern Ozzy cars from 90s on was, what was that late model stuff. I've got to, I've got a few

personals. I want to say, Obviously the edx

are a Sprint. They're actually starting to

really appreciate it. I'll talk about them a few times

on this show and the show. So, if you want to get one, get

one now, obviously that LEL and EFX are sixes and accelerate as well. I should put that out there,

really start to appreciate it. They're appreciating and there's

good reason to Look, there's something there's some really dodgy wines at. There's a lot of people itís

obviously, got their hands on him as with every performance car in its time and they just thrash him, but there's a lot of good examples actually coming out and there are some of premiums and we're not talking like 50 Grand but compared to what they're worth. Let's say, 10 years ago there,

there are some for good prices and you're getting Quality Cars.

So they are Quality Cars or even think about him some of them actually got let's say, under 100,000 cases, which is incredible. It's, that's not that they are

good and they've actually She getting really sought after these days. Also, I was going to say just

think I'm speaking with Ford. Are you serious 3?

XR 8 to 20 s. 2237 the 220 kw and the obviously The Tick 43's

T and T as 50s there. The fan Fantastic are fantastic

Motorcar. I think I think they've

appreciated have. Let's say a few years ago was so

cuz I remember looking for, Looking at them in general and their prices, either, their steady or they're pretty decent for what they are. And yeah, they're cool.

Cars are stroked the, the capital available cars that that a fantastic engine. I'm going to be a bit more for,

I think like the baby fgts and like fgts have kind of lost their like the big GT badge if because there they just became kind of like again, it's like an everyday car.

But if you feel about something Ozzy classic, you're going to go instant class, you can go a typhoon.

Because the accessories turbos. Well, with the, with the

straight-six turbo, let's say 46 46 as well, which is super rare.

I mean, anything I want to say anything with a with an excess, it with the barest, 6 is going to be worth of Dammam.

I say anything with a limited run builds that they've made in the last few years that have an FP.

B FP. V bad slapped on them, which is

majority of the gentleman said, run builds.

They're going to be cars to probably hold on to it for a little bit. GTR specs with we're talking

about like, I'm we're talking about gtfs as well.

So the gtf was the final 335 walls of was actually from had more than 400 kilos believe or not gtf. 351, 351 for the output

as a homage to their old 5.8. So, there are real real cool

car, very fast car. They're worth over 100 Grand and

obviously later models, accelerate and excessive Sprint's that their best of the breed in the, in the FDA extreme will get the Holden because, whereas, you're running out of time for the show, obviously, I'll be kind of the menorah.

Is beef animal loose? If you can find a really early

Malou out of like iPhones of VP R VN, they're really really rare like they are super duper avenge of pretty so vp's.

They basically rare super are like, you don't say I'm and that there wasn't there was like under 100 Main form in one year or something. So like there are really rare

car. I kind of like them because

they'll different I had a really cool way of saying, well, you would look very nice, very bottom lightning bolt, it did.

Yeah, it did. And then Obviously, then you get

W 41, to 44, 27, which is just like seven lead are Bleak of an engine at a Hero 6, which is pretty dope.

Anything from all different, from your ham.

Any, any of the hsv's were, you know, they'll GTS obviously special cars. The GTS is like this one

especially like it's just a fantastic car.

Yeah, it cool cars. And especially when wall control

get their hands on her door. Let's say someone starts a job,

a few images onto the, the system, they and they start tuning it. That's that's in the opens them

up. They're pretty cool.

There might be for anything with that.

Alice makes real good power but the problem is they generalize, this is dropping Allison something, you know, but it has to take at least a little. Yeah, pretty much.

But no, they do make good power and it look one of our clients that we look after they. They they Troon Alice's and

there's Alice for life for them and they just the Met incredible power out of some of these cars supercharged and they just ramping up as crazy. I also like, The later model

Caprices and stuff as well. I reckon they're working out

like, they're pretty, pretty much a gangster car like that long wheelbase. That the camel, everything

really, and they look good as well.

They chase pick one more in particular was going to cause I was going to add in there. The GTS, I, it was, it wasn't a

nice-looking car boobs. It's obviously, we're talking

about, the VA has vs is filled with the big spoilers and They sound nuts, they sound really good, they went good as well.

Just just just really, really cool looking as well.

I thought we got a text from dr. Rocky says him and I be a

driving. Can you do me a favor?

And yell, all yell. Look out just from a

specifically for you. Dr. Rock your home.

Any other ones, any other honorable mentions look?

I think we've probably missed something.

If I'm gonna be something that says, are you mentioned this car? But looked it.

There's been a quite a few throughout the years.

Yes. And yeah, some of the Aussie

make hazards that they won't be forgotten.

That always going to be around but unfortunately it's unfortunate that they won't be made anymore, but we still got the still, got him still floating around.

So what do you reckon James? Sounds good to me.

I've no idea where you guys talking about, it's like car.

He went to sleep before the visit V8 2 terabyte, yeah, V8 biturbo, a big engine. Good boy.

Over him with the killer wasps with with the extra extra kilos, attic space Travelers. Yeah, I guess quiz time outs

again, you want to be top of the charts and I can see it in your face so we're going to get to it.

We could talk was Ronnie actually because I'm going to run out of time and really get to a development that happened with me over the week and someone said someone texting, I think to work again, hey, James team.

Strange. Yes, he did with his podcast

will be up very shortly. So, listen to that, he talked

about the movie, but I think the crystal meds you ready.

Then question, one of them grow. So the Ford Mustang is

available, in Australia, with what two engines, it's a joke as well. She's the EcoBoost and of the 5

liter 4 cylinder father. Yeah, Question 2, who has the

most rally Constructors championships at of all any major, any manufacturer who has the most Valley Constructors championships out of any manufacturer?

Is that your final answer? It's a Lancia.

Oh, really? Well, that's actually you should

get this one question 3. The Ferrari F40 had what size

engine Maybe if I get it wrong you're gonna kill me if it is a V8 but it's it's what size like at the incapacity.

I'll give you here wasn't big? Yeah.

I was gonna say five. That's why I was going to say

about 2.9 liter. Wow, really tiny engine.

If you put it this way, if you get everything right up, come out equal Luke's, core question for the Next Generation, Commodore will be based on what vehicle and I hope all the sides are. It's not a fool.

Ya, I couldn't tell you the name.

I actually haven't been looking they released them here.

And I said, yeah, they're really, they're in a based on that now. Fair enough, a cool car.

So they're pretty cool question. 5, the what legendary name plant

from the computer will be dropped when the new vehicle arrives. It's been with has been with the

company for a long time. They still saw it as a Commodore

something as in like the talking like a model.

So yeah Commodore Amiga someone yeah but it's the most famous name plate with the capital most famous same PSS.

Yep vs. Super sport was not just a

sport. Okay.

Later model Trader. And live-ins which are you

crawlers? Came with a different version of

the legendary for a g-force of 4-cylinder engine.

What differences did they have? Individual thought about it.

Yes, yes it did. That is one joule of heat Kim's

that they both had. I'll give you the points because

you got TVs, it was a kind of the 24 pit, which is, which is really okay. All right, so I'll give you that

question. 7 kreisler departed, Australia.

Originally in what year, come on man.

How are you the Chrysler expert Mitsubishi boredom out.

Let's say 80 it was very early 80s.

I put it away. 82 82 81. Very close.

You were very I just going up at the last crisis a man and anyway. All right.

That's right, the Audi. All right.

Shades V10. With one engine in like it's

just shredded V8 engine with Waka the Audi R8.

Yep. If the super gun weave.

Now, I've drawn a blank. Can I can I phone a friend or

something? James, you don't don't look at

me. I mean, bloody V6.

Twin-turbo other words are words.

Let's think. Volkswagen dawid tense.

Can I have a hint? Well, it's burned by the

Volkswagen group. It's a, it's a Monica idiot.

Lambo what collider? Yeah.

It's done. Okay.

The gelati. Can I help you guys behind

It's Neapolitan, the Holden Commodore is currently sold in the US as a what, as a Chevy race that way.

Which SS SS. SS all pretty.

It's got its got the HSV Parts but GTS is that with?

No. No, it's currently the Chevy.

Okay. Chevy one.

Besides being the GTR kind of Chevy SS still.

This is good. Are they did have the

associated, okay, cool. True.

Or false, all Subaru cars currently for sale or all-wheel drive fast? That's correct.

So mr. Grasso, you've gotten one, two,

three, four, five, six, well, too, bad.

The same as last time, you've had it.

You had a better score than that in the past.

I'm not gonna like, but I look, William.

We have to go to a break and we'll be right back after this.

And we're back on 98.9 Northwest their fences.

Car talked with many Jay still in the studio with James and Adam, they haven't left me there.

If they've stuck with me for this all, he's special Ozzy, muscle special. Look, there's so many Ozzy

Carly. We're gonna wait for hours in

this town this topic, the Interceptor.

Oh yeah, true. Well this is the only that's the

only car. It's basically it's based on a

speaker speaking of. So, um, yeah, so we did mr.

But yeah, the intercepted such a cool car.

So I wanted to And again, stopping of a systems, check your ties people because I am, I had a puncher, I didn't realize, because I'm, I got really low profile tires on, this is always on my laser and I was driving home.

I was talking to work actually, and went around a corner on mosconi street and the car just kind of kicked sideways and added complete out of nowhere. When I when I was going around a

corner and like it was no cars coming your way and pulled over.

And I noticed there's a big hole in my side wall.

So always check your pressure is always just Just yeah.

If you know if you notice on this us over, what seemed as the car wasn't going well, the things my cars and driving weird, it just it just - it just must have said, no, no dice and let go. So it was it was actually pretty

hands pretty scary at the time because you had absolutely no control but I'm just just as a community service announcement, keep an eye on your car. Look after your tires.

Check your pressure is regularly, so mr.

Grassi, you got a big message to my brother?

Yeah, so what I want to have to do for him, what He said her of a black eye. You Cheapskate Cheapskate are

cool. This is just for, look at, look

at no one else, right? No one else needs to know about

this P. I just bought a car, right?

So when I come around, I'll show you what it is because I'm not going to tell anyone now what it is.

But actually, I will now stuff it.

I brought a charger, mate, so we'll show them.

Yeah, I brought a 74 Charger. Nice.

So that'll be Vijay Vijay. Yep, yeah Vijay. 74.

M E6. Let me 63 64. 65 Single SIM card

it's got a four barrel on at the moment.

Okay. Yeah you're a triple hubs I've

got the triple Weber's okay with it.

Yeah the guys has Weber's. It's a really cammed.

Its purported it's everything is ready to go.

Just slap the web has on mail-order four-speed manual.

That's cool. That's that's gonna fly.

Yeah. And I guess to put the cherry on

the top, it's actually an ex New South Wales.

Police car your king. There you go.

Pretty cool. That it has a very cool got cop

sharks car brakes. X cup breaks, actually it to be

T1. It's gonna be T1 before they

even released that that I'm congratulations on.

That is really cool. I'm super happy for you.

What color. It's its original car is

actually Amber. Okay.

The cars been re sprayed in Limelight which was a factory Vijay color, was actually a VHS re VH + VJ color.

Believe the, the color died with the Vijay Vijay, so yeah, it's a factory color. Not its original color, but it's

still a really nice color. It's a factory for Speed or as a

battery of everything else is Factory.

Well, the answers as it was when it rolled out of the factory, interior murder everything, its original engine as well.

But some numbers matching numbers matching everything except for the color which, you know, which is, which is cool.

It's just, it's just a spot, a difference and see it is it sort of a pub over pack in a way it is.

In its build line. It's a middle is actually it's a

high medium range car, so it's not exactly Pavo.

But it did come with cop options.

So the internals of the engine with different between a stock charger and a a a cops back one. So they had a K10 option which

meant it had parts from the RT. So, a party, I can't remember

exactly. I think it was crankshaft has a

hearty, the bouncer was from the Artie.

Go. The, the four-speed wasn't from

the Arty but it's just a few internals of finality.

But then it has got a big tank. It has another big tank, it's

got standard tank but it's got a brake bias valve which is RT only. It has a four-way flashers which

were Hazard like revolutionary other didn't come from.

There was a funny thing that did not come with him.

It was an option to be honest, the huh?

So it was a cop thing. It has dual horns which are only

does this model, actually. That's the only I think I

believe it even though it's not too low.

It's got the spot. He's at the front, which are non

at the moment, but they'll cop normally cop.

Only spec. I've got the light bar, the

Coppola Hai paura with the science really is the car that isn't on the card and the sirens and everything which is cool.

That's cool. Look there's a couple of other

things I probably missed, I can't remember but yeah it's it's nice that that's cool. That's cool.

That's definitely something to keep a hold of it.

And all appreciate, how is it for Honor?

These things are phenomenal for us, but I was super clean like it's when when this guy went through he's obviously has redone all the interior cut out, rust and replace panels.

But surprisingly there isn't that much rust on it.

I think. I think there's a little bit at

the back but they rust a lot in the plenum saying front of the dashboard and 0. Well, absolutely zero at the

front there, which is really good.

It's a solid car. Yeah.

So, it look, I don't know where in yourself as it came from.

I'm still looking into a few things in the history side of the balance, which I can get a bit more info on, but look, it could even be in a country car. So I don't know yet, but I'll be

pretty cool to see that though came from.

That's definitely awesome. So yeah, that's crazy how that

was an ex-cop car as well. They, that is really cool.

Yeah. And yeah, that's that's a ding

it's stamps. It stands on the body plate and

on the engine. That it's ak10 option, which was

a New South Wales, police car please.

You can only build that, that's cool.

Yeah, that's, uh, that's a better piece of Automotive History. It really.

It is, it is so that's, yeah, that's definitely something to harm to appreciate with. Yeah, so congratulation that

about, those are really cool by. I'm gonna have to come, come

passing and have a sense that this thing.

And we can go for a cruise in it.

Let's see if 6 and then the child rescue much I might be a bit faster. Okay there's things will be

faster but you know 40 40 40 or so years different can we only refer to it as the police cruiser?

Yeah, I know. Is that a place for you?

I have it. Pulled me off.

I mean, we could do like what we can do is bring in documents and be all sorts of lame and car card.

Nerdy kind of kind of thing, but I'm happy.

That something is got LSD flyer. Yeah, it's got Alastair Chuck

the Hoops. You can make elevens all down

there. Well, what struck the triple web

is on there. Also, you go, I made it won't be

able to just will spin everything he says, but I really put the trip was on, you'd probably give me a Run, look, if you treat them, right, and you've got it all the supporting stuff, which it's got, a majority of the supporting mods, you can get over 300, kilowatts out of the things, man.

It's incredible. It's gonna exhaust videos,

standard exhaust, it's got. Its got an exhaust.

Its police tracked is got pacemakers on it, so it's, yes, it's got. It's pretty much straight to.

It's got a hot dog at the back to tone it down a little bit.

Yeah, it sounds good. Does sound nice.

Nice at all. It's almost 8:00.

So it's time for us to end but um congratulations get out of when you can, it's that's really good.
