His names Scotty and he runs TopGear Photography - Featured on this and last years Gazzanats dvd, and has ...

I have noticed a lot of people with Commodores coming on the Forum that only just found out about the show. We must be missing something in the Advertising of it all.

We will have to get the heads together and work out where we are missing out on the Advertising for next year.

it's just like going to your place and seeing cans with a "Certain Bear" on it......I think we both should get free lifetime supplies for all the unabashed free advertising we are giving them .....lmao

just a few small updates.....picked up a set of gold statesman badges which I think set it off nicely....also installed a fire extinguisher, and a mate of mine does laser cutting so cut me a pure polished stainless holden logo which i put in the boot.....

Well today gave the beasty it's first full detail, conditioned the leather seats with a brilliant meguiars product that softens up the leather and restores the shine, a full polish which took 4 and a 1/2 hours, and polished up the rims.....then took her out for a bit of a photo shoot out at Salisbury, am very happy with the end result....

yeah did a rear main seal on it but thankfully was covered under warranty...it would have been the guys bringing it back from parafield after it was done.
