Thumbs up Street Machine of Year

Hello Everyone

I would love for everyone to vote for it so a Ford can win it this Year.
Only 6 Fords have won in the 21 years.
Please log on to www.smoty.com.au
I am nomination number 3.
By all means if its not your cup of tea please vote for one of the other Fords nominated this year.

Thanks

I am fan of Angela Dow's Torana but considering that there is no way it could be street driven (legally). You have my vote.

Unfortunately I got the server error as well.

I sent the Street Machine site a feedback message with details of the error so hopefully we'll be able to vote properly soon, whenever they get a chance to look into it.
