JR isn't the editor any more.

I do like that car, nice wheels and big AP Racing brakes. Also ran some decent 1/4 mile times IIRC.

Isn't that line at Fowles the government and ex-Lease cars?

*edit* He hasn't been on the Street Fords forums in 3 months.. http://forum.streetfords.com.au/member.php?u=2

Spot on guys it was at Fowles. You just don't know what you may find when your there. I think it got passed in at $22,000, it has been thrashed and on second motor. Watched a street fords DVD rescently and the guy does seem like a bit of a lunatic.

I think he sold it, and he is now the editor of that lesser ford mag Performance ford...he got fired from Street ford i believe.

He had a XE ghia as well, and it looks like its getting a stroker or somthing...

Didn't JR go on to write for Performance Ford magazine?

That BA would be nice with a 2 tone black on white paintjob.

[edit] Nick beat me to it, he did get the sack.

Plenty of MK1 BAs have popped motors too, I wouldn't stress over that.
What bottom went back into it though? F6, Atomic?

Yeah the CFI GT's came stock with gas from factory, it's the MPI ones that you gotta look for, my mates dad has one and he put a cop chip in it, has a switch that you can flick and it'll go faster.

Is that the one running a NOS Fogger system, MoTec system exhuast and a stand alone fuel managment system? I heard that had enough power to blow the welds on the intake?

Nice way to spend 10g.
