66 220 w/ 240 grille. Ford Blue aqua in color. 125 hp 1720 pre x flow. Ran 15.60 1/4 mile, 1m.16's Calder, 1m.36's Sandown...Now in darwin, sorely missed...[8~2]


The POS steering wheel was on ther coz a mate had borrowed the proper one for a test fit on his capri..



heres a pic of my new project....Dont hold yer breath, it's gonna be a while! MERRY CHRISTMAS GUYS!!

Thanks mate, loving your 64 !! that color is killer! (what is it?-im thinking of a similar red for mine) ...cant wait 2 see pics of yours w/ the cossie! ...still bet it went like stink w/ the SR though!
...The GT will have a setback 347 windsor, T5 trans, 8" rear, full cage, big brakes, rack n pinion, 15's etc etc...will be more of a track car but still rego'd (much easier to get away w/ in California then back home!)

Hey Paul, the Old Cortina is still looking good in Darwin. I've changed a few things like RS2000 seats; centre console, carpet and changed the rocker cover for one that does'nt leak. Picked a couple of trophies along the way. It does a mean lap around Hidden Valley as well. Hope things are going well for you in the US of A.

Ahhh Eric, didn't know u were on here mate! Glad to hear from you, and happy that u are enjoying the Corty! im lookking forward to wrenching on one again!

Hi Paul, the old blue beast got me distrated from the Mk1 Escorts for a while. I bought a 63 Lotus replica, but it needs a lot of work. Its got a newly reconditioned Lotus engine and close ratio gearbox. For what I paid for it I got the body and running gear for nothing. I would be keen to see some picutes of your progress. Lots of people comment on the paint job on the old girl. It is standing the test of time. Have a nice "Holiday Season".

Nice pics zombie!!
15.6's is cool out of pre xflow!

Good luck with the left hook gt!!(we don't see them everyday.)

cheeRS Dan

...is that slicks I see on the red one?

nah mate, just knackered buffed down toyo proxes....

Zombie - DUDE! Leave the paint on the red car AS IS!

It's aneat period looking ride - preserve the 'survivor' characteristics of the beast! A killer set of 15s, V8 and all the fruit would make it with that exterior simply mind blowing!

Either way you cars are a credit to you, and I love them long time - In that unique and slightly weird Australasian way of course[;^)]

P.S. - IS that a Falcon 2 door Sprint behind the Red Mk 1? If it is I just blow a main seal in my pants - those things are unreal[:u]

WOW[:u][:u], top stuff!!! Thats 5 more corty pics added to my CORTY folder!! Cant wait to see the updates on the next one as its being built
