Hi guys been on here for a while now and thought I'd introduce myself and share my collection with you.

Name's Darcy, 24 years old from Bendigo and work as an Auto Electrician for a local company.

My collection consists of an 89 SVO, series 2 EF Ghia, 97 XH ute (will be turbo'd one day) and a mkII BA XR8 sedan

Current project is the SVO i purchased a year ago. Was a 3 speed auto, 2.77 LSD and standard 3.9 with a mild cam. Auto was a little dicky when i bought it and recently packed it in and the diff was beginning to make quite the amount of noise also. So i bought a 3.45 LSD and 4 litre to chuck in it along with a T5 conversion I had laying around. Since the motor is out i was in 2 minds as weather to leave it how it is or hide all the wiring, battery in the boot, delete coolant res and smooth the bay etc. Plan is to fit XH ecu and re-loom the engine bay with an XH loom I have leftover from my ute along with thermos and all that jazz. Only thing holding me back is the fact its an SVO. Keen to hear a few others thoughts on weather to keep it original or change it up a little before i get stuck into it and might regret it.

Anyway here's a few pics of them all. First one's when i picked up the SVO. Look forward to hearing some feedack and having a chat :drinks2:

I would leave the svo as original as possible.

Man I want an XH :(

That ute looks pretty tough mate. Nice. Agree with the above on the SVO.
