Not a car, but still totally awesome. From the Grafton bridge to bridge ski race a few weekends ago. My old man used to dominate the 145-175hp outboard class year after year back in the 90s and retired from racing in 98, he went down for the first time since then this year and took a few pictures, and this is my favourite...note the twin screamer. Awwww yeahhhh.
Then there's a Cortina on the classic euro ford forums that's being built up with a 350+rwkw cossie in it. So much tyre. The motor is still being built so no pics of that yet.
The old set up....
Makes me want to get back in to a Euro Ford (minus the Lucas electrics)

This ute belongs to a guy that delivers all out plasterboard etc to work so he told me all the details .
Holden WB

19' Boyds on the front and 20's on the back.
Its basically a trailer queen, he drives it up the street and back and on the day when he drove it onto the truck, it surprisingly isnt that loud... Total cost = $195,000.
That motor come straight out of steven leerentveld's torana
Desire isn't driven by the heart, the mind or the wallet. Desire comes from another place. It's created by the smell of burnt fuel under full throttle and the look a car gives you when you're washing it alone at night...

and my personal favourite:
My bro actually had a bit to do with these, at the time he was working at the Brock Museum for Peter Champion who also obviously owns HDT and my bro was actually doing some chops of a big banger model as well for Peter, tho in the end it looked nothing like the original big banger, something to do with they wanted it orange on black wheels which is nothing like the original.. Imo they're all quite fugly but they definitly stand out, theres a few around here in HDT trim. So far the best I've seen is a red wagon, looked quite good.
I gotta say Phillis - that eye operation cannot come soon enough!
The idea of working on any of those cars fills me with such dread and horror I'm going to have to sleep with the light on tonight.
Look at your car. Now back to mine. Now back to yours. Now back to mine. Sadly, yours isn't mine. But if you stopped buying dodgy cars and bought an ED, yours could be like mine. Look down. Back up. Where are you? ...You're on BoostedFalcon, reading the signature your signature could be like! Anything is possible when your car looks like my car... I'm on a computer.
Good work Holden.. Makes fords look even better now..
The next time you're having a bad day, imagine this:
You're a siamese twin.
Your brother, attached at your shoulder, is gay.
You're not.
He has a date coming over tonight.
You only have one ass.

Imagine if you got in a car that had balls in a straight line. The M3 isn't really *that* quick anymore, a freaking $65000 Falcon off the showroom floor can beat one in a straight line!
