[External Image Removed]

This month we have chosen Emmanuel's 1980 Landcruiser from NSW as Feature Car of the Month for November.
What a Wild Landcruiser!! In the detailed engine bay, there is a 460 with Tunnell Rams, Twin Four Barrell's and Powder Coated Extractors. And what beaut paint work - two pack purple with a 3 layer pearl. This cruiser is also fitted out with a great stereo and custom built box in the rear for sound while "cruisin".


Congratulations on your hard work Emmanuel and we hope you have a great time at Summernats 16.

To participate in Feature Car of the Month for Summernats 17, just send a great photo in with your entry form starting from July next year and you'll be in the running to win a great Brute Horsepower Video of your choice. OR to see all these great street machines, come to Summernats 16, 2 - 5 January 2003. SEE YOU THERE.

Yes I agree, I will take heaps of pics for you guys of all the muscle out here on 2nd to 5th of jan stay tuned.

I happen to like the SB V8 with either Turbo or Supercharger getting above 1000 hp at the wheels on pump gas. and the Jap import GTR only 600 something go figure

yuck..... that's not a 4x4, it's a true pavement queen. The engine is the only thing in it worth a damn.
However, i must admit someone put a lot of work into that thing.
But hey, to each their own............


If it ain't broke, upgrade!

he has the power thats for sure but it's all useless in a car like that all the power probably comes in a fairly high rpm useless for a 4x4 atleast for a trail rig
