Mine is a Hj (obviously) with convos, all green (darker than barbados green, so not the car youre thinking of) except the factory blackouts, and a hornet scoop. in essence, it looks the same as every other bloody kingswood lol. since i spent more time in the carpark than on the track, you may have seen it a couple up from Bretts car in the pits, near where the altered was camped. If a pic turns up ill link it, but only if its a good one, no daylight under my tyres lol.
