It's great seeing a proper Holden (non spaceframe) Supercar again. I remember seeing this back in the day along with the late Jason Richards in the BJR Comnmodore giving the big teams a run for their money.

What do you mean? have you actually seen a project blueprint car with it's panels off? They are most definitely a space frame. The side panel pressings were hung over the rollcage. not to mention the VE Commodore had 25mm cut out of the rear door as did the Falcons from the FG onwards. So even the OEM body pressings won't fit on the car. the rear sections for both Falcon and Commodore from about 2009 were custom coachwork

@@AJS86 No, they do not use the road car chassis. That was over at the end of 2002. Teaks built the chassis from the ground up from the beginning of 2003. The floor pan etc was all built in-house.

@@The_Evil_Monkey_93 from what I've seen and read. The engines and front suspension on the Commodore had to match the Falcon. Along with the aerodynamics. Nothing else was done.. No identical spaceframes and custom panels like Car of the future.
