Hi all!


I was a member of fordforums.com, but I've been out of the loop for a while so I hadn't realised that there was now an Australian ford forums. I realised something was up when I couldn't find the pub! So, here I am. Some of you might remember me from the other forum. Looking forward to contributing here in the future and renewing some old acquaintances. For those of you who don't know me, I have an AUI Falcon XR6HP in galaxy blue. I'm also planning on rejoining the XR8 and XR6 Owners Club of Victoria.

Regards,

HP Dude

Thanks Twisted and Laminge! I also have a 1969 XW Fairmont which my dad purchased brand new in 1969.

Laminge: At one stage I was working and studying full-time so I would occasionally log on and lurk; I know it sounds weak but at that time I was too tired to even post! Now things have stabalised somewhat, so I'm getting back into things I used to have time for and enjoy. This will also include getting involved with the club again. My disappearance was not related to any issues with people/organisations, just from being spread too thin! FWIW, I did keep tabs on your TS50 from FF; all I can say is WELL DONE!
