My story with this car
From new, this car was imported from the factory to the USA. It went through an unknown number of owners in the US before a gentleman in Canada purchased the car and imported it there. He gave the car a full engine rebuild, adding Eagle Premier cylinder heads, and tidied up the car significantly. In mid 2015, I bought the car from him and imported the car to Australia, where it is presently the only 780 in the country. Plans for the car include a body respray in the original colour and a conversion to a metric speedometer, R134a air conditioning, and right-hand-drive to meet the requirements of local registration regulations.
