Theres a awesome photo around ,taken by wheels mag i think, back in 1970 of the gt falcon dash ,with the speedo on 140mph and the tacho on about 5500rpm, they drove from Melbourne to albury and back on the hume " really quickly",will have a look to see if i can find it and post it up.
Yeah a couple of workmates have that picture on the back of their toolboxes but the modern version from wheels magazine from about 2-3 years ago.
It has an HSV (in colour)either sitting on the GT's arse (in B/W) or showing the GT in its mirror...i'll check tonight at what it is and the speedo shot.
Marc.....that A9X is my favourite of all time (i knocked back an A9X for $14g in the late 90's because it was a 4 door)i rang the bloke (trading post days) and he said as soon as he mentions its a 4 dr....people said no thanks
i thought about it but wanted the 2dr....i also drove up to sydney and knocked back an HT350 Monaro for $9g because it had dry bog dripping down under the parcel shelf even though it was a clean body (lived next to the beach) a few months later
I picked up my HJ GTS coupe 10 years ago for $3500 in bits and a complete running HQ GTS coupe last year from a work mate for $6g...so i'm happy...but an A9X would make me happier
I love all the older cars inc Fords and chargers even though i work on all the latest/proto future GM stuff
