Default Wanted - hire for wedding, XY (TAS)

G'day guys.
I'm getting married at the end of this year, and thought I'd try my luck on this forum to track down a nice XY (GT or rep. ect..)
I'm actually trying to track down my old True Blue XY GS, I sold it about 4 years ago :togo: I think it went to Spreyton in Tassie, so if anyone know if it's whereabouts, please I would love to contact the guy who owns it.

If anyone can help out I'd be greatly appreciated.

If I can't get hold of it, something similar would be great.

Shayne.

Hey Shayne, cant help u with the where abouts of your old car. but the one corey is talking about is electric blue. he used to be in the club but has since moved.
your best bet might be contacting the Classic Ford Club.website here as they specialise in the older GT's and might be able to help you track down your old car.

Cheers
Tim

I know the car and the owner of the Electric Blue GT. He does do weddings with it, I don't know how much he charges to do it though. He recently changed who he works for, I'll see if I can get some contact details for you.

I live in Spreyton and I can't say I've seen your old one about, seen the Yellow one though. But I guess they aren't cars you would regularly take out to drive.

Thanks,
I did see it in Devonport about 2-1/2 years ago when I was working down there. He may have moved since.
