One friend I hung around with lost his license and for a while I was his wheelman. He had a blue FB sedan with twin pipes, jacked up 6" in the rear. It looked quite spectacular but of course was sluggish and didn't so much corner as plough.
Another friend's Holden of note was "The Black Ace". It was a rough looking mat black FC with white wheels. It ran a MKII Zephyr motor that was welded to the gear box. This car looked like trouble and ran on syphoned petrol.
An HR panelvan owned by a mate was shiny black and had a MK I Cortina wagon rear door. This was involved in lots of cruising of Dunedin streets when I was 17. Having a mate with a panelvan was better than having one yourself.
