When you get this running with good suspension etc , take it for a drive around your speedway track . Once you get used to the steering wheel being not directly infront of you , you might just change your mind about Torana's.They are extremely controlable in all situations and a whole lot of fun. Yes I'm a torans fan , had a half dozen of these models in my younger days and loved every one of them.

Most new cars are junj after 4 years, that Torana is a perfect candidate for a new life. It has lasted 50+ years despite having been used and abused. Can you imagine a new car lasting 50+ years ? I can't.

A 186 is the go for an LC, but a 173 is still better than a 138 if thats all you can get. I removed a 186 from an LJ because in NSW you couldnt rego a 1973 car with a 1971 engine . Replaced it with a 202 and was very dissapointed . Got it passed and re fitted the 186.

Should be hung in a pigskin 😂 Yeah, we had dozens of the LC over the ditch in New Zealand 🇳🇿 ( kiwiland )😊 The 138ci was originally the old FJ engine by origin. That was superceded with the 2250cc engine along with the 2600cc engine between 1969 to 1972. Would love to have owned one 😮 what a great project. Your 173 ci engine ( 2850cc ) was from the LJ Torana ( & CF Bedford vans ), my preferred engine ❤
