      Rusty is a very good builder with attention to all the little details. His car is absolutely beautiful. Glass like black paint perfect gaps and it just goes on. It's one of the best quality builds we have seen.

      Tried to get XY Lic the other day but it failed because steering doesn’t self center. So it’s booked in to a wheel alignment & suspension specialist. Fingers crossed he can do magic on it so it passes soon.
      As soon as it passes I’ve got some ripper plates going on 3GTHO71 & chrome tramp rods to put on.

    My first car was a white ‘68 XT with the 302 Windsor ex cop car. Got silly one night sliding up the street in Sydney, put it through a brick fence and that was that!! That was in 1978 and I paid $1800.00 for it. I miss that car!! Like he missed his first Fairmont!!
