Love the Country
Her Bro drove a Charger 245 Hemi Racing Mustard Green. On the same dirtroad, we raced back, me in my 250 x-flow TE (Yella Terra stage 2 heads, Redline Torker inlets, Holley 500: farked with the pumper and the jets and it actually works, C4 gearbox, Walker extractors and 2.5 inch exhaust, Stationwagon diff). I beat the Charger by a mile. But to do so, I had to ask my ex to be my navigator, after a half a carton of Southwark 30s, at 4am at night, doing 120-140ks on a dirtroad. Its no wonder why she eventually left me... The TE made me fall in love with Fords, Au Forte PS: Selling AUI release 2 (02/00) original single din headset with all four original 5x7 speakers... |

Go thread mining! Drunken races down dirt roads are clearly ace, but generally frowned upon by AFF. Might be best to save those stories for PM!

How on earth did I miss this thread in the beginning :P
Will get a few piccys sorted & post them of our paddock beasties ..... including the EBII wagon which is now retired to bus/paddock duties for the kids ...... a fully sick (yes in both meanings) Sigma, a green Mazda van and a few various others that have long gone to be used as dog kennels & paddock ornamentation ..... hehehehehe |

Speaking of banjo music - this clip needs it. RIP brick BBQ.

Awesome thread. I learnt to drive around the farm in Dad's 89' Rodeo. It is a road ute, but it certainly gets a thrashing around a paddock. I seriously doubt it would be roadworthy! It was great fun. I did my first paddock circlework in it, I hit a couple of fence posts in it, Dad got it airborn off a channel bank! One of the funniest things was when Dad ran over a massive boulder. The diff hit, causing the rock to crack in half! No damage to the ute.
This photo was taken in 2001. It is now 5 years older, rustier, has more dints, and has a massive chunk missing out of the bench seat
