Looks like it might have been a show car in the late 80s / early 90s.. do you have previous info on it?

I wouldn't be too worried about what the tags say. It doesnt have matching engine anyway and it's not like its a four door, its always going to be a two door monaro regardless of tags.

so will the price differ being that it was olive green not red and a base model 6 instead of a 8? cheers

Whats the point deano? Is the colour going to make it cheaper? It doesnt have original engine anyway...

Its one of those things mate, it will take the right buyer to see past the state its in.. a lot of people can't fathom doing anymore work to a car than slapping on a turbo conversion and doseing school girls. Realistically to bring it back to beauty there is 50+K and thats not going over the top. Its an absolute classic that won't go backwards in value so hold out for the right buyer with cash.
