this concept is my favorite Holden (I am a American, but I still am a car nut)

it's based of the fifties Holden fj, which is the Australian equivalent to a 55'-57' Chevy.

I said the Australian equivalent. It hold the same place in hot rodder's and car peoples minds there, as the 55'-57' Chevy does here.

yeah I saw that car in the "flesh" at the Adelaide Motor Show, it's pretty sweet!
That's right schmanman, it's an Australian car that can be compared to the 55'-57' Chevy, it's not like we decided to try and build our own version of the Chevy, like Pontiac tried to do with our Monaro; they absolutely butchered that car!
:cry: ...those bastards!

umm, gm OWNS holden. ;) that concept car is built on a corvette chassis.

I dislike gm's. I'm a ford guy.

I've seen it in the flesh three or four times. Detroit autorama, north American international auto show, etc.

I have also seen cars by chip foose, and many of the cars you see in hot rodding magazines.

Why do you ask that? I used to be a HUGE bungie fan. Any reasons for the inquiry?
