This build looks intense awesome, IJ. Why did you choose an economy grocery getter as a platform?

What's the livery gonna look like for the V8 Supercar racing?

Thanks!

Original "plan" was to pick up a dead NA Mk4 but people wanted stupid $$$ for them here, the "Lexcen" is a rebadged Holden Commodore Toyota put out so they'd have a BIG car to sell here, it's a 1994 model I picked this one up running driving for $400

There's a lot of parts cheap/available here for these things but since I started I've gotten carried away (again) and just about everything is custom...

The Engine/Trans is a proven quantity I used it in my Tow car for a couple of years and it makes around 450AWKW so around the 600 Hp mark.

For the Livery I was thinking about the early Toyota rally scheme as it's easy to reproduce.
