Vauxhall SS Coupe

[nota]

I forgot about the 3.8, that must have been the engine in the '67 Holden I mentioned

In my city there's a lime green '73 Constantia 350 (our HQ Statesman DeVille) its probably an ex-Embassy car

I was amazed to learn that SA actually manufactured the 383 Chrysler engine!

Hi willysjeep

I just read about the thread you had going aboit 2 years ago, keep your eye on the next few issues of TopCcar in S.A. and look at what they are featuring, among them my broher's Ranger SS.

Please post some pix of your boet's Ranger here. These cars are very hard to find. Most of the forum members here cannot access these magazines.

Hi There I will as soon I get them downloaded at this point I have a few on my phone, and then my boet has the rest with him in Durb's, but I'll get them posted A.S.A.P.

God bless

Hi willysjeewp

As promised her are a few photos, but the nice ones are still with my boet, enjoy. I've uploaded them, although I'm not sure where they are.

I'm going on leave for 3 weeks.

God bless to all, and may you all be truly Blessed by His Grace.

Hey willysjeep

I've also got a manual on the car, care to have it coppied?

God bless

[willysjeep]

FORGET about the Ranger.............whats in the background. That Gunston Capri, is that the ex Koos Swanepoel car or is it a copy????

Where is this picture taken??? I see the company name is in Afrikaans.

Have you got some history on the other cars in the background. I see a yellow Capri as well. Is it also a Perana???

The area looks like Bloemfontein??

That Ranger is looking good. Nice car... remember to post the detailed pix

[Ranger ss]

Hi wylisjeep Sorry for spelling working off my cellphone. The Gunston Capri is a replica, and the other is a Genuine Perana. They belong to father and son Andre and Tienie Venter. You are right again about the location, it was taken infront of a spares shop that I tried. There is another pic of a Chev SS, belonging to Gert van der Merwe.

[willysjeep]

Have you got other pix on these cars as well??

[Ranger ss]

Hi Wiliysjeep. I'll see what I can dig up, maybe Andre'll have a fex pics on the build, and his dad's Perana as well. God Bless.

[willysjeep]

We're waiting!!!!

PS My favourite was the Little Chevvy, a Vauxhall Firenza with a small bolck Chevy V8...was called the Chev Can-Am - 300 built for homolgation purposes.
