Allan & Anita Norris’
BAD EH
Now doesn’t this take you back a fair few years, looking at a Street Machine magazine, thinking OMG that’s cool, AND it still is!! That’s pretty much the same thought that went through Allan’s mind when this creation started to evolve in his head. Already owning a left hook, very cool Camaro, Allan just wasn’t comfy with what he was cruising in and knew that he had to own a fat looking Street Machine with huge tyres and a huge blower poking through the bonnet that just screamed Aussie Muscle! So blocking all the grief from his mates out of his mind, about selling the now rare collectable
Camaro, this little ole EH started the journey to becoming the staunch Muscle Car you see here. There’s no doubt by these photos that Allan knocked that goal out of the garage! You would be hard pressed to find an item in this very cool custom build that hasn’t been modified and customised somehow. This isn’t just a show piece either, everything about this build is to have this staunch looking street machine cruising the streets putting smiles on bystanders faces and definitely Allan’s!
Muscle Car Madness in Rangiora (South Island), the very same week as being finished eighteen years ago, the EH has clocked up around twenty-eight thousand kilometres. It’s no slouch either, running a strip time of 10.6 seconds on the quarter mile while still wearing mufflers and in street trim. It ‘s honestly amazing to see this build still looking as stunning as the day it was finished. Allan’s prep work, before the final colour was sprayed on, certainly shows his skills and determination to have the super cool car he has.
It is hard to believe when crawling under and over this car that most of this was built around eighteen years ago. The body and paint work is still stunningly smooth and straight and this doesn’t just sit in the shed either! Since being finished and driven from Auckland to
This could easily be regarded as a straight-out drag car with that huge blower in the air. But upon looking inside to see the full leather interior wrapped around the roll cage and the extra dickie seat custom built to sit between the huge wheel tubs in the back, you can see there
