Hello all, my name is Mark, I'am 44 and live on the Westside of Brisbane. I've owned 79 cars in 29 years, in the Ford make i've owned a few Fairlanes, Cortinas, a couple of Fairmonts and a couple of Escorts. Being in the trade for many years all the cars I have owned I've built myself, from show cars to drag cars and just tidy run arounds.
My current everyday driver is a NA II Fairlane I bought of a 75 year old gentleman who was the second owner since 1996, it's in mint condition, and was a credit to him.
I post up a few pics in the showroom, here's one for now.

Cheers Mark.

Thanks for the welcome, I don't know if I'am going to sell it. I've been looking around the site at all the turbo cars and it's something I'd like to own. I live 15 minutes from Willowbank Raceway, and the drag racing bug has bitten again. I have a mate that has a cheap EL for sale, the running gear is perfect, just needs a coat of paint, excellent street and strip car.

Thanks mate, it's only done 214 000km's, the old fella went to town replacing items before he put it up for sale, it drives like a brand new car.

That's clean as all you need to do is dump the front and pull the sun visor off cause it's an epic fail!
