Hi, my name is Pete and I thought I'd join the party. I've been Ford through and through all my life and my current ride is a 1977 XC Falcon Ute 302 Cleveland. You don't see many of them where I live so it's great to have something different for everyone to see - I get tired of looking at old Holden Utes!!). I hope to give out some tips and get some feedback as well.
Cheers |

Hey guys, I'm Joel
been on here for 2 weeks or so, but never entered "The Bar". First car was an XE Falcon (heaps of fun!!) Currently driving an '89 Corolla Hatch :O Should have an '05-'06 Focus by this time next month. If it wasn't for petrol prices it would have been an XR6T. Cheers, Joel |

Hi everyone,
My name is Rob, I'm 23 and I drive an AU2 Xr8 220 and I'm new to these forums. The Xr8 is stock apart from a twin 2 and a half inch exhaust and is white in colour. I also have a MK2 Cortina 440 as a project car but I think it will be a while before I get it back on the road ( I recently repossed it back off of my younger brother who lost interest in it after getting destracted by a 351 XD that he purchased). By the way there is lots of helpful info on these forums, infact it has already helped me out just by looking through old threads, so thanks. Cheers |

Afternoon from Perth. Thought I’d say G’day, joined here last week when one of my NL Concorde power windows decided it had enough of this world. Anyways thought I’d let you know i found out (after a days running around) there was a non genuine window regulator available for the E series…a lot cheaper and most importantly far superior design than that installed in the factory....I’m certain it will outlast the original by many years…now I’m a member no doubt I’ll be enjoying the ride (and the forum too..!!)
Cheers |

Hi all,
Just thought I'd let myself be known. My real name is Rohan and I live at Bathurst. I'm a Ford man (obviously) and support the 888 V8 Supercar team. I own an AUII XLS Ute but am considering the upgrade to a BA XR6. It doesn't have any major mods, just a sports exhaust and a new cd player. I also have a 1973 Toyota Celica that I'm putting into my first rally this weekend at Batemans Bay. |
