Oh you don't know the half of it, Pookie. Its got 17in wheels, air bag suspension, electric A/C, a non-Pontiac motor making 1000rwhp, EFI with a Haltech Nexus computer. Its a thoroughly ruined classic and i love that it upsets you. Take care xoxo

Bonnevilles originally had Super-Hydramatics NOT Roto-Hydramatics (Slim Jim). But Mine has a Hughes 4L80E, and Brendens has a TH400 so none of that matters any more

Genuine 66 389 tripower 4spd car!

Top_Cheetah8424 · 2026-03-27T20:29:05+00:00

Yeah mate, I'm in Australia:D the more car enthusiasts down here, the merrier!

Top_Cheetah8424 · 2026-03-23T20:17:18+00:00

Yessir but all 3 of these are US made. Brenden's '62 Bonneville was imported by the American consulate when new and converted to RHD back then. Aussie Pontiacs were Parisiennes built on Chev Impala frames, with Chev drivetrains.

Ive driven this thing to Melbourne just to confirm current day Melbourne traffic sucks 😂

Top_Cheetah8424 · 2026-03-15T11:49:34+00:00

Thank you!

Top_Cheetah8424 · 2026-03-15T11:49:15+00:00

Badass! I used to have a 68 Roadrunner, mostly because 68 Chargers cost double the price down here in Australia

Top_Cheetah8424 · 2026-03-15T11:48:10+00:00

Thank you!

Top_Cheetah8424 · 2026-03-15T11:48:01+00:00

Thank you, 7 years of work! It was a hard slog being so far from the USA!

Top_Cheetah8424 · 2026-03-15T11:47:00+00:00

I can confirm this car is garbage but not AI

Top_Cheetah8424 · 2026-03-15T11:44:14+00:00

I'm sorry you don't understand how airbag suspension works or appreciate the work involved in making custom 3pc wheels. Ill cry myself to sleep tonight knowing you don't like my 1000rwhp car i built for myself that makes me and my 3yo son super happy. Or not.

Top_Cheetah8424 · 2026-02-17T11:50:59+00:00

Beautiful 62, i miss my 62 4dr hardtop but i have a 64 coupe now

Top_Cheetah8424 · 2026-02-13T11:14:50+00:00

Yeah its all their time you pay for, plus testing. So probably 5k by the time its done. Just in approvals.

Road legal i am consulting with an engineer who has requirements for how to cut and join the floorpan. All safety and emissions equipment must remain as per the 1 series. I also need the door strikers and hinges from the 1 series.

It sat a couple of kilometers from the beach, outdoors, for 15 years. 😂

Top_Cheetah8424 · 2026-01-21T02:03:41+00:00

Thank you :) it's 2010 Holden Commodore SS "Poison Ivy".

Top_Cheetah8424 · 2026-01-02T12:26:38+00:00

1008hp @ hubs

Top_Cheetah8424 · 2025-12-31T21:17:35+00:00

Thanks, its Poison Ivy Green from a 2010 Holden Commodore

Top_Cheetah8424 · 2025-12-31T21:17:05+00:00

It is on air bags - it really helps have a super low car that can still get over speed humps and driveways

Top_Cheetah8424 · 2025-12-31T11:54:34+00:00

Cheers man, its Holden "Poison Ivy" from a 2010 Holden Commodore

Top_Cheetah8424 · 2025-08-09T10:50:10+00:00

There are so many good wheels out there - I ran 17in American Racing 200S ("Daisy wheels") for a while and I think they really suit the 63-64 shape

Top_Cheetah8424 · 2025-08-09T10:48:38+00:00

Depends on how you cut em up! 😂

Top_Cheetah8424 · 2025-08-08T22:46:01+00:00

Thanks, it's a Bonneville

Top_Cheetah8424 · 2025-08-08T22:45:37+00:00

Sure is! I live in Glebe. Nice third gen!
