74 galant coupe - needs resto currently sitting on my folks block
75 galant coupe - needs resto currently sitting on my folks block
77 galant sedan (factory rally pack, bought cos it has zero rust and if i ever stacked my GC)
80 GH SE Sigma(my old daily, cant bear to part with as it was such a good car)
84 sigma, on gas, currently fixing it up for my mum

1994 HJ Galant v6, theres a thread about it in "Other Mistubishi Vehicles"


So I can turn a spanner pretty well, other cars ive ownded have been : 85 Volvo 760turbo, 89 r31 skyline, 88 r31 pintara

As for motorbikes, i used to have a 98 suzuki across 250, now i have a 98 yamaha r1(original red an white factoru color scheme)

I'm studying business and finance at Vic UNi but do enjoy turning spanners and driving/riding fast stuff when im not stufying.

Hi Karl,

I used to read sigma-galant a bit back a few years so became somewhat familiary with your GC - always wanted to do the same to my first GC galant but never got to it.

Welcome!
 
So when we going to see u in an 8th gen ? LOL
Man u must really love them :)
 
Hi Karl

Welcome to ozvr4. Make sure to pop down to the next wash meet and say hello.

Just as well they live on opposite sides of the planet - that would be a little too much man-love for comfort... :(
 
Hi Karl!

Yeah, I have a bit of a reputation on ClubVR-4 (and on here it seems, yeah, THANKS BRAD!!) for being a serial Mitsubishi owner too!

Currently the fleet consists of my Legnum, a 1975 Colt Galant Hardtop (AKA Galant GC Coupe) and a 1990 Galant GLSi Hatchback. In the past I've owned a 1976 Colt Galant Saloon, a 2000 Galant GLS and a 2000 Galant 2.5V6 Sport....Nice to see I'm not the only Galant Lunatic!:ROFLMAO:
 
K have you got any photos of the GLSi up since you finished your fortnight of polishing madness?
 
bradc - heres a pic of me.... fixing a ford ewww.

Erm, err...........:redface:

I ain't finished yet - it's still too damn swirly!! Don showed me the art of Menzerna Power Gloss and that worked nicely, but we only did a wing as a trial - We'd already PC'd one Legnum that day and it was far too close to Pub O'Clock!!:ROFLMAO:

It's coming on nicely though.

Ooooh swirly's not good!

My brother and I are going to invest in a good quality pro buffing machine when we both get back and our cars are finished (he's in the US right after I'm in Europe and has two 'vette projects on the go atm) - when you care about your paint its a good investment IMO.

Glad to hear it's coming along K and I look forward to seeing the finished product - it's a pity you're not in Londonia or I'd take a look in person ;)

Sorry for hijacking your thread Karl! >.<
