Mate I think you had the biggest collection quite some time ago! Not many people are game enough to own that many magnas (1 keeps me busy)!!!

Yea, most of them are not registered.

I also bought two damaged TP magnas from a wrecked auction yesterday!:bowrofl:

I have mentioned it before, but we have a car yard so its not as though theyre all just sittinga round some house... But i do own them all (ie not the yards to make money on or something, talking about old magnas here hehe)... its just a crazy obsession i have at the moment.

It is becoming a drama though, because our car yard is getting full of just magnas, and unfortunately people do not like that look!!

So yea, welcome to browse at any time thos eof you in Adelaide hehe.

What do you mean by commecial venture? If the aust magna club has any stickers or signs i could put them on teh cars or around them if anyone was interested!!?? No dramas. Theyre all lined up next to each other, well the non wreck ones are anyway.

So in the wrecking section i have

1 x Blue GT Magna
1 x Grey TP Elante

These are just basically for looks hehe. also-

2 x White Auto Tp, good motors and box
1 x Red Manual Tp, Good motor and box... and interior and every other little thing!!

But i dont know if im gonna pull them apart, or let people take bits off yet, as these 3 are very nice cars, apart from slight damage...

Anyway, heres a few photos of th white one i just took!

Total count of going magnas today is

11.

4 x GT Magna
7 x Elante

:redface: Alex.

Man they are nice cars... but why so many??? One is enough to keep most of us occupied as they do require heaps of maintenance! Do you do anything to them, or just polish them up and admire them? I can't see anybody with that many of them finding the time to drive all of them... :shock:

oh? I guess if theyre driven all the time, i dont know, i dont drive them all everyday obviously hehe.

Yea i just admire them... i dont know why so many, i just see one and i have to have it... basically! crazy.

Anyway, with that burgandy GT i have with no stripes, does anyone know if they would/could still sell them through mitsubishi? i wouldnt think they do but... never know! If anyone knows, let me know and ill buy some.

seeing as your so found of them. Why don't u take some picy's of the gt stipes off one of the other gt's and then get an airbrush artist to lay them down. that way they will keep longer.

What's the damage to the red Manual TP?

Hey! Thats a great idea, but i think thatd cost me too much... if i had it when it was a couple of years old, thats what shouldve been done!!!

Airbrushing is expensive isnt it?

The red tp is smashed in the front left, i thihnk i might repair it because i really like it... needs, bumper, bonnet, guard and light... the frame needs to be straightened too... if it can be done with some beating myself then ill do it, have to look into it a bit more :)

The window 'socks' are to hide the sub and amp behind the drivers seat!

Hehe, thanks!!

Your car looks quite nice in your avatar also, i like the Verada lights! If only the TM-TP's had something special and different like that.

I was thinking, if you just put clear glass on the headlight of a tp or whatever it would look liek them? Does anyone know if this can be done or has been done or anything? Ive been thinking about investigating it more for a while but havent put any effort into doing so hehe.

I reckon itd make it look totally different because it'd just have two rectangle lights rather than the big white looking shape! A sportier, transam/scorpion look!!??
