Adrian Burgess, parting 'gift' when he jumped ship from DJR

I think Ryan Walkinshaw gave him an old VN Commodore in HRT colours too...

I thought the PCD /stud pattern for BA and onwards was different to AU and previous?

No, PCD/stud pattern has stayed the same across all Falcons.

Prior to AU wheels (X and E-series Falcons) needed a low offset (0-10mm or thereabouts)

AU and later wheels (AU, BA/F and FG-series Falcons) needed a medium offset (factory wheels 36.5mm)

----------

Though if your going to have a bit a fun and paint your AU yellow and red I prefer this one; Mad Max - AU

Could have put an XR front on it if going to that extent!

I know the owners (Burgess) - our kids go/went to school together. This car was actually at a house around the corner from me a few weeks ago, and it has not aged well from when it was first done. It is a fairmont though, so it was a nice cushy tribute car. XR front would finish it off, but the funds were spent on this many years ago, so would now be good money after bad.
