You must have just missed my car Pete. Yeah high climb track is great for photos, I uploaded a few of Scotts car up in the showroom. I was only in and out of newcastle to say g'day to scott then onto bigger and better places [^].



Great car Longboy

Just a few additional shots.
1 The front bumperettes changed to a full bar with overriders - (a bit more bling)
2 My turbo dump pipe after i really gave it some. That was with a world cup cross member in the engine bay which sits the engine in solid. Couldnt believe it. I thought i had done the brass button clutch when i heard the scrapping noise under the car as the exhaust dropped.[88]

I'm surprised I haven't posted on this before... But awesome car dude.

Revised fuel cell remote filling point to be legal for the road


No more strange looks at the servo when filling up

this car is a work of art, even though its not 100% ford haha

I got over the purist issues long ago and ventured on the path of engineering cars to perform better and more efficiently. Dont get me wrong, i still love seeing an original esky float down the road, and id easily own another, but i just wanted to have some real fun in a car that would upset the jap boys

haha id love to just pull up next to a ricer and go "fimiliar with a thing called power to weight?"

Never knew ricers travelled with the windows up for the full effect of air conditioning. I thought doof doof was more important for everyone else to hear whilst the ac sucked the bag out of the engine that is trying to lumber the extra 500 kg in bodykit.
Fortunately i have no issue with abnormal temperature at stand still or when passing these so called ricers.
Im just happy that im doing it with the same engine plant in a lighter car. Its all about smart engineering[%] The smarter ricers usually appreciate being shown the light, hence the growing number of retrofits.................
