    I love Monaros, Toranas, XY GTHOs etc, but for me the XB coupe is the pinnacle of Aussie muscle cars. They just have a big and mean yet sexy presence...

      Fangin' down the road in over a ton of metal, and they rekn take your best hand off the wheel to change gears (90%+ are right handed).
      But we're all wrong having the wheel on the RHS...

    Well Cam, your a bloody rare commodity. You drive Supercars Sprint Cars NASCARS. Your not new age, your genuinely old school and unlike most of the drivers in Supercars you are not afraid to show your true allegiance. Possibly the best body shaped Australian Ford ever made. Then you made a rough diamond shine. Dam I wouldn't mind doing a flat out lap around Bathurst with you in that. So pleased for you. Congratulations on a top build
