I found a box of old pics last week, amongst them were a few of a couple of my previous rides.
Thought I'd best share......

This one started life as a Wherrett, then was turbo 2.6 for a while and ended up with a pokey little Astron II.

...and this was my favourite. I spent a couple of years getting to where I wanted it.
Bought as a one owner and then molested it A LOT!!

The red one was my second car, prior to that was a GC. I paid $4k for it in 1995!! I sold it after I purchased another Sigma (one with less rust) and could not afford to have two.
The scorp was sold because I left Tassie. I was really bummed about letting it go but the new owner semmed just as passionate about it as me. Unfortunately his passion did not assist his driving skills and he crashed it 2 weeks after he bought it. I was really annoyed as it never saw the road again. It sat in hs shed for years and I thought about buying it back years later but couldn't justify the hassle bringing it over to WA.

Scorp is a really early GJ. Not many of them were sold without the aerial on the A pillars.

What taillights did you have in it? I've never seen them with the top half clear like that.
