So why import falcons for hearses? i'd have thought there be cheaper estates there, like Volvo.

because he wants' to be different, like me wanting a mustang here. Every ****** over there will have a bmw or mercedes.

Midnight, if you do come to australia, you should leave the falcon there. you can pick a new one up while you're here.

I would of thought it would make more fianancial sense to do that, Falcons are probably a lot cheaper over here than England. It would be like sending a Mustang back to the US.

a bit of sentimental value in it aswell. Ive slogged my guts out doing the whole chassis in pedders poly bushing took a while but got it eventually. It probably would stay over here just leave it in the garage for returningon hols.

As for colman milne i dont know why falcons but they must get them cheap as they currently have around 40 sitting in storage awaiting converson.

Bloody loads of left hooker mustangs over here. Mostly v8's but fair few v6s aswell.

So you are driving a Lada Niva or something equally "different/unusual" at the moment?
