Anyone (with enough cash) can buy a holden

 

However, to drive something that YOU have put together, with a labour of love is a totally unique feeling. I’ve driven some pretty nice cars (Porsche / beemer m3 / scoobie) but you cant beat that feeling you get when you know its all your creation going down the road, with peoples heads turning if you overtake, and they keep looking when your half way down the road…

 

Just my thoughts.
