Just picked up this 1973 Chev Luv, I am its second owner from new
It has the OHV G161 engine (not Gemini)
I already have An Isuzu Badged tub and Mikado steering wheel (having Isuzu badge made for it)
So hoping to turn it in to an Isuzu Faster
Josh

Very very cool brother J!
Just need a pic of the Wasp and Luv together. Don't think I've ever seen that done before.

Thanks Davo, Updated my list, The history of the Vehicle was one of the reasons I bought it. It was a little Italian man who was a concreter and it was his work car. Made sure I got a photo of him with the car!

Nice Josh, a pair of ute backs. V
Shrek had an Italian former owner too, but a tiler. He also has 8 extra years of toiling!
I know of one similar near me...hmmm... (Tracy, don't read that).
Cheers,Matt.
