Seen it heaps.

The one thing that makes me laugh is the guy that sticks the name plaque on the engine is "Bandulah" - the same bloke that made my mate's TS50 when he had that!

he's made a few that's for sure...

I reckon it's a top video, was there ever a longer "ford special" video made on the T series at all....?

Very early T3 cars had them. Even in the Blueprint magazine they were snapped for a story wearing orange repeaters aswell IIRC maybe a wheels or motor mag.


Edit- they were never sold with them though
