Always good to see people thinking outside the box and producing something unique that is what they want. I always think of these as rolling artwork done in the personal style of the owner
I remember seeing one coming through Longreach in the early nineties. It was yellow. I still love your car. Three of my favourite things all rolled into one. Classic Holden, Ozzie Muscle, & rippin’ 4x4! Love the attitude. Never let anybody tell you that you can’t do it. They told me that I couldn’t put a V6 Chevy in a Sunbird back then in the early nineties when I was a kid, but I did. As long as you engineer everything properly, you shouldn’t have a problem. Keep enjoying your ride!
You saved a body from the scrap heap Heads off to you.. You then threw in a 5ltr Another heads off to you You then put it on a full coil 4 x 4 chassis Gees You are custom car / 4wd LEGEND !!
I reached out to him and he responded pretty quickly. Hes very interested, but doesn't know how to reach Shane. If anyone can see this maybe they can pass along his contact info.
Marco Chavanne - Found Shane Tapscott's Facebook. Pass this on to Ronny, or maybe one of Shane's mates can help make this happen. facebook.com/shane.tapscott1
Dude literally inspired me to continue going through with a project somewhat similar to this. Slamming a Pontiac Sunfire cab onto a Dodge Dakota chassis with a wildly built Dodge Charger 3.5L
Shane you are a legend. Excellent engineering mate. I used to love the over lander but this is like you said one of a kind. I bet you’ve had some offers.
I did a similar build in the early '80's. Took 300mm out of a Holden HT wagon, fitted to a Nissan G60 chassis with a 3.6 litre Isuzu 4BB1 diesel, home made bellhousing to Toyota Dyna 5 speed overdrive, home made adapter to Nissan G60 transfer case to Nissan diffs. Wound up it would do 160 kmh. Did all the work myself...mechanical, fab, paint,upholstery, electrical. Back then you could hand write an engineering request/report with photos and mail it to RTA Roseberry office, in Sydney. Two weeks later it was registered. Those were the days. Roger.
MATE, you have a winner there what a fantastic vehicle and a true gem you should have a lot of pride in what you've achieved. I want one myself but I'll never be able to do it with a Monaro as they cost too much and are too hard to find. Maybe I'll do it with a later model commodore. HA HA HA You are a legend, Shane.
Oooh...i once heard about a raised 'Charger' that was driven from Melbourne to Cape York peninsula, and back. The chassis cracked, at the firewall, before the cape, so, they jacked it up, from the cross member, and threw a weld over it, and finished the trip as planned. That'd have to be a contender for the inaugural 'most Aussie car' awards - locale, and date TBA. Don't ya reckon? But, that HT is awesome.
You really proved everyone wrong Uncle Shane!! Seriously love it!! So can not wait to go for a drive in it ( remember you love me more then mother dearest if I could tag Rachel I would shot gun before her ) ❤️ so happy you made your dream come true x love Tel
Tappy yu are a truly inventive aussie genius. Sort of like reinventing the wheel level genius. Yu picked a mad car to begin with, cause it actually looks much more alpha in the 4x4 stance, than the road version, and is the last car one would ever think of to do that type of custom conversion to. where to next , supercharger, twin turbo.???
Yeah, well, my only argument was 'why would you do this to a Monaro?" but if she was T boned and was headed for the wreckers anyway, then I reckon this is about the best way of keeping it going you could imagine. You said you wanted it to look like Holden made them, and you've done that in spades. May she never die.

You're kidding! This man was my wood work teacher when i was 16yo. Hey Tappy, lovin' the HT.
From Mount Isa. Cobba.
Cobba Mooney what are the odds
TQ #4 slim. Very, very slim
seems like a genuinely good bloke. My woordwork teacher was a cunt, was always running off to do metal work haha
spinifex or good shepherd
I don't even have words for how much of a legend this guy and car is
IRONCLAD No. But let's just say I was do you really think I could answer that
Anujan Navaneethan hmmmmmm
Anujan Navaneethan is this loss?
IRONCLAD what r u even saying
@@anujannavaneethan1723 t5t
Don’t know whether to cheer or cry. Great engineering.
So many all done the same. Cheer all the way!
Ticked every box for me. Absolutely love it man.
A new found respect for this guy ,his work and his enthusiasm for a build that would certainly raise an eyebrow..one off.
By far the most genuine idea
Brother, your a legend. And your words are inspiring. I'm in Cape York, and you and your rig are welcome any day.
Always good to see people thinking outside the box and producing something unique that is what they want. I always think of these as rolling artwork done in the personal style of the owner
Saw this beast on the M1 going North.Couldnt believe our eyes and gave this bloke a thumbs up.Nice bloke and top vehicle👍👌

Wow that’s original, wish I still had the two Monaro’s I had in my twenties!
I love to see that people change the cars to cool stuff like this even knowing the value of them
Needs to be on Ronny Dahls show
Marco Chavanne - YESSS he needs to be featured on Ronny's channel

raksh9 great work! I actually found his Facebook this morning and passed it on to Ronny. I'm sure it would make for a very interesting episode!
Marco Chavanne - Fingers crossed, I hope this happens!! Great work all round.
Awesome beast!! Your build your way that's what makes it UNIQUE.
thats one of the best builds ive seen so much work into that nearly evrything would be custom i love it
I pass the guy all the time around town
Gets me so excited when i see it
Bloody awesome mate. Nothing wrong with saving the old girl that way. Shit they are pulling some coin recently though.
Fitzy Holden yeah mate
I don't smile easy and this car made me grin. Very cool.
Never have truer words been spoken. Well done mate, very nice.
What a awesome bit of kit. Hope to see it on the trails. Well done.
I'd like to see an LJ Torana Brock tribute on 35's utilizing a Pathfinder chassis..... Great Job Man !!!!!
Dude literally inspired me to continue going through with a project somewhat similar to this.
Slamming a Pontiac Sunfire cab onto a Dodge Dakota chassis with a wildly built Dodge Charger 3.5L
Best of both worlds brother! Nicely done!
This is insane! Love it 😍
Unique ...good job ...looks great...
Shane you are a legend. Excellent engineering mate. I used to love the over lander but this is like you said one of a kind. I bet you’ve had some offers.
Oooh 💯 and% inspiring . 1 of the best projects I have seen so far

AND I paid $70 for GTS bonnet, guards and dash to fit to the HT wagon.
Complete beast!!, great build!. All the best matey.
MATE, you have a winner there what a fantastic vehicle and a true gem you should have a lot of pride in what you've achieved.
I want one myself but I'll never be able to do it with a Monaro as they cost too much and are too hard to find.
Maybe I'll do it with a later model commodore. HA HA HA
You are a legend, Shane.
So unique! What a rig
The most aussie car ever

Tappy yu are a truly inventive aussie genius. Sort of like reinventing the wheel level genius. Yu picked a mad car to begin with, cause it actually looks much more alpha in the 4x4 stance, than the road version, and is the last car one would ever think of to do that type of custom conversion to. where to next , supercharger, twin turbo.???
Love it, what a beast !
Would love to see one done in a HQ monaro body
Thats badass
That is fricken awesome!!!!
I’d take that over factory original any day.
Love this!

Thats awesome i wish we could of heard the 304
Yeah, well, my only argument was 'why would you do this to a Monaro?" but if she was T boned and was headed for the wreckers anyway, then I reckon this is about the best way of keeping it going you could imagine.
