    Must have been a pretty slick falcon with those stainless sill covers.

      Was a XP Fairmont wagon would have also had chrome wheel arch trim aswell . The steering Columb is worth grabbing as it's for a 3 speed auto and very rare part . Notice tthe disc brake front end is long gone

    That van so reminds me of the coka cola freedom machine van from the late 70s
    That would have been quite the thing back in the day

    The CF Bedford must have been a pretty slick boogie van in it's day. I used to know the guy who designed those vans for GM UK. He was still doing body clays for GM 15 years ago.

    Dig the old Jag with a SBC in it, that's pretty cool. I can almost smell the stench as you opened the door, add a bit of American flavor to the English style and drive it across Australia. Good to see some moddied Jag's loitering around still. The HQ also caught my eye. Thanks Troopy Guy.
