Never realized there were so many differences between an HQ and an HZ till I started swapping throttle and clutch cables.

May have a little trouble with wheel alignment. This is my old warhorse "Nedders" an HZ kinga originally 253 4speed converted to efi 304 supra 5 spd as a test vehicle for my monaro. He pulled 130mph @5grand in top. He had a hard life before I bought him then I caned him for 2 years before this happened.

Then drove 120k's to my uncles and home again. The HJ prem in the background is my grandparents 253 tri. At one stage our family possessed a HQ coupe HJ Prem HX Prem and HZ Kinga all 253's.

the "new shed" have moved house so the monaro has been on hold for another 4 months although it has had front and rear screens put in. The front panels were fitted for travelling so they didnt get scratched.
