    Anyone who grew up in Sydney knew this beast,didn't know it still existed after seeing it again made me feel like a teen back at eastern creek a true street legend!!!

    What a fantastic car. I can't believe it's still around after all these years. Long before there was the Olympic stadium at Homebush there was the abattoirs and quite a famous bit of straight concrete where petrol heads would head out to on a Saturday night after meeting at Henry's or wherever. WOG007 was always a crowd pleaser then and even more so now.... 40 years later!

    Every one in Sydney new this car and it was always fast
    Great to see it again

    1st. This is LEGENDARY. I remember seeing this beast at the old Eastern Creek Drags (main straight of racetrack. West to East) in the 80s. And the old Oran Park (RIP) drags. Before they put the mesh fence there. Plenty of pics of it lifting the front wheels.

    Growing up n the uk in the 70,s these things were everywhere.
    Never really took any notice of them .
    When I passed my driving test In 1988 someone offered me a very tired looking one for 25 quid!(even then there wasn’t many left!)
    It’s only recently after seeing one pass me I thought they were actually a really good looking car!
    This one is stunning!😍

    It always amazes me how these Cortina models were absolutely everywhere in the early to late 80s, and then disappeared completely by the 1990s here in Britain. I can't think of another car that just was so popular then instantly nowhere within a few short years.

      @@dinosshed True but that's true for so many other cars too. I've looked at many cars over the years that were popular at the time, and none have disppeared with the alarming quickness of the Cortina Mk3. Look at Fiestas. Many still on the roads of all ages. By the end of the 80s there were almost no cortinas from the 70s.
      Weird how it just fell off.

This must have contributed to their quick disappareance. It's just the only exmaple I've ever found of such a quick disppearance especially as they were everywhere.
