Mate,it looks so good now I'd be scared to drive it...Much Respect to you and yer dad. I was a fan of the faded green survivor look,but different strokes etc.
Killer job mate well done! A real credit to yourself and whom ever else was involved with your project. Really looking forward in seeing what you have next installed for us enthusiasts.. Cheers.🍻🍻
I take my hat off to you, Simply 10/10+, You've gotta love our local talent in Sth Aust. (a nice stretch of the Sturt H/w between Sheoak Log and Daviston) LOL,
Hi Blake absolutely love your videos mate and the quality of workmanship that I can see is fantastic. A credit to you. As I am a local Adelaide lad as well can you recommend someone to me for paint. Specifically for bumpers. I love my old Holdens too my first car was a HZ Prem but I love my Mitsubishi's as well and just about to start restoring a Ralliart Magna. Well done on the LX build I really enjoyed watching that car come together it looks amazing
Looks great, are you going to get bigger rear tyres they look a bit small on flared guards, I noticed your tyres a 225 My orange Torana has no flares and my rear Tyres are 235 on the rear. But over all you and your dad must be proud of your efforts. Well done congratulations 🎉
Beautiful build mate, been great following the journey. Only thing I’d change is the rear wheels, they just look too small IMO but that’s minor. All in all its looks awesome. You should be proud of that paint job 👌🏻
She,s a beaut Blake I'm sure it's better than new ,the paint finish looks amazing ,i remember how funny they looked with the flares ,as I mentioned a mate of mine had a black and white one new in 77,he put 14x8 magnum ,s on the rear and 14x7 on the front made it look nasty,problem back then the cops would do you for over width track ,so we spent a lot of time swapping wheels around LOL. Again well done ,really hope you get another project offered to you I've gotten hooked on the channel ,😊😊 Kym Adelaide
Man that is one killa car done an exceptional job on the resto. Only thing i didnt like is the silver slr5000 paint id personaly prefer it black. But its not my car and doesnt matter wat i think. Great job bro love the old toranas. I got a mate with a genuine A9X hatch been sitting in the garage 10-15 yrs.
Great job mate I take my hat off to you 👌👌👌👌 the only thing i don’t like is the Ariel a chrome one will be nicer but I understand that the factory one you have on
The best & most easy result I’ve had with them is pressure pack; motor spray “wheel silver” acrylic, comes out great and is a simple easy approach, quick result too.
nice job... personally I would have done the slr 5000 in black... seems out of place to be honest in silver, and i would have done all the black work in gloss, is mising the slr 5000 down the side... I thought A9X was plain, never had slr5000... confused.. ... but hey, every ones different... well done man, the orange looks beautiful... how much did you steal this car for when it was green...just curious
Mate has a A9X 2 Door ? Been sitting outside with carpet and shit stacked on top of it. It had a 550 hp 350 chev. But 100% A9X the sad part is he doesn’t care about it !! But will not see it. It’s got to be worth $50k as is.Whats an original A9X in good order go for these days.but what a waste by my mate. I’m a ford man 100% but that A9X he has breaks my heart. Manul red and black 3 door SLR ? I assume not sure but so fkg sad.
@@Evans_Racing I’ll check it out for you mate ? It’s a real real shame as I’m sure you could imagine leaving a car like that parked up for close to 20 years. The sad part is there was absolutely nothing wrong with it. The guy couldn’t afford to look after the A9X wich was I believe given to him through family 20 years ago. I’ll see if he is happy for my self to send you his number. But looking at your Tory it’s obvious where the A9X belongs mate. 👍🇦🇺 Chat soon 👍
Well it’s not an A9X but looks great so good job. Glad you didn’t fit stupid shit 20 inch rims or drop it on its diff. My first car was an LX SS hatch 308 manual. The whole family has always had holdens. Sandmans XU1s statesman’s caprices VKs VLs VCs had them all including 3 A9Xs with one still in the family with only 40.000 klm. The first batch of A9Xs ran the super tall 2.6 diff ratio which with an M21 manual was good for 100 Kph in first gear. The second batch ran the trusty 3.08 ratio. Undisputed KING of Australian touring cars and the results speak for themselves.
I was really hoping the white Brock was next, I'm always looking over your shoulder at it when you are out the front.
I think that should be next!
Might have to it’s however just some “garden art” to look good 😄 the boot floor is completely gone, but nothing that couldn’t be fixed
@@Evans_Racing I think it needs saving
If the white ones that far gone maybe it would make a good candidate to narrow the rails full tub and full send 😏
Just need to add a 295 or 315 tyre under it's Bum . Fill up them flares. Really enjoyed watching the build. Cheers Blake..
Looks stunning and period correct wheels are the go,well done Blake.
Hey up mate it's come out really sweet you've done a great job there
Thanks mate!
Great job - 8 months WOW from wo to go - fantastic.
Fantastic effort guys, really enjoyed your series of videos on this Torana. Looks awesome.
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching mate
Absolutely stunning mate very nice work bloody beautiful 👌
Absolutely Stunning car You should be proud of your self I don't think many would make it as pristine as u have....
Opened up RUclips, and thought I seen this car today at cars and coffee, turns out it was your car! Looked absolutely mint today. Well done mate!
Haha yep it was, dad took it out with mum. Cheers mate!
What an awesome finish looks brilliant 👌👌
Very nice mate. It just keeps getting better.
I’ve really enjoyed watching this build.
Congratulations Blake 🍻

Thanks mate appreciate it
Killer job in a short time Blake, well done!
Great job mate she looks sick love it
Looks awesome, sits perfect, great colour combo. Must do the brocky.
It looks amazing 👏 new screws and bots are one of the most important things. Dirty old bolt heads kill a rebuild.
Turned out amazing well done 👍
G'day,
The Torana turned out really great.
Certainly one to be proud of.
✌️ Peace from Melbourne 3810.
Looks absolutely awsome blake. My dream car right there. Loneoranger is the best orange colour.
absolute stunning! well done
Amazing result!
Outstanding Blake looks killer mate 👌
Awesome looking build. As for the air cleaner. I'd keep the one you're currently using, it looks right there, but add the 5 litre sticker to it.
Ride height looks much better now.
Overall awesome job.

It would be nice to fill it out yeah, it’s only a 7” rim however for now, and if loaded right up it will still ride nice atm
I am not a fan of toranas , but I must say you have changed my mind , wicked build mate , now go and enjoy driving
Thanks 👍
Love it you have done a killer job

Haha thanks mate cheers
The Torana came up real good! Good job!! The vc commodore behind you should be next??
New to your channel, you do awesome work.
Came out unreal mate - must be super proud of her 💪🏻love the colour and interior combo!
Curious what the story with that VC in the background is 👀
Bloody, great job.👍👍👍
Another classic, reborn by the Evans clan.Well done looks fn great.when can I pick her up😅
Fantastic rebuild , enjoy putting some miles on her
Exceptional work mate. What shocks would you recommend to pair with my King springs. KYB, Pedders?
This has nothing special, KYB do the job well
Thanks mate@@Evans_Racing
Man that is one killa car done an exceptional job on the resto. Only thing i didnt like is the silver slr5000 paint id personaly prefer it black. But its not my car and doesnt matter wat i think. Great job bro love the old toranas. I got a mate with a genuine A9X hatch been sitting in the garage 10-15 yrs.
Absolutely killed it mate , perfect. Will this be coming up for sale .
The torana is my favourite car .but I was never a fan of the rear spoiler.but as a torana owner they are an awesome car
Good job man well done i love it🧡🧡
Car looks great mate. An early headed engine would make it look period correct under the bonnet.
A9X Top of the list
Great job mate I take my hat off to you 👌👌👌👌 the only thing i don’t like is the Ariel a chrome one will be nicer but I understand that the factory one you have on
Very nice 👌 should paint the engine and valve covers factory orange. Hide the modern heads.
Your work is quality Blake on all your builds 👌🏻💪🏻
I appreciate that! Thanks mate
Amazing!
What colour/brand paint did you use on the wheels, they look great.
The best & most easy result I’ve had with them is pressure pack; motor spray “wheel silver” acrylic, comes out great and is a simple easy approach, quick result too.
Amazing ❤

Just curious , what size where the Hotwires?? 14's or 15's.
What diff ratio is it and what auto are you running in it ?
Hey mate, it’s 3.45s with a trimatic, cruises along bloody nice 👍🏻 with 225/60/15
i would love to have this car in a game called My Summer Car and in real life
Sweet.
Mint👌👍🤘✌️👊
