@Geoff289 @jon72vega @zanyad you've all got good eyes and good taste! There's a full feature on John's twin turbo Mercury/Ranchero from Aussie mag Street Machine here: https://www.streetmachine.com.au/features/twin-turbo-1964-mercury-comet-ford-ranchero-hybrid-ute He's also got a very...

@Geoff289 we got pulled over for an RBT the other day. They'd stopped pulling cars in, looked up and saw me, and waved me in :oops: Oh great, a great feeling when driving an old modified car. So I'm getting my wallet out and the cop with the breathalyser goes "So MartyMcFly is it?" :LOL: As...

Ah man, that's absolutely frustrating to get that close. Hope you land something soon.

Getting there, good steady progress!

Great to hear of the success with the pizzas. And love seeing the jobs like the tomato trellis and portafilter from idea through to finished product.

Nice progress as always. Great to see you consistently chipping away at it. In terms of chassis paint, one thing I have heard about KBS is that if its exposed to UV it will fade and go chalky in appearance. Not a problem on a full fat fendered hot rod. I'm not sure if any of your chassis will...

Saw this on marketplace, and thought I'd share it with some of the resident Aussie Ford Fans. Asking price is $125,000. Italian styling with an American muscle heart is such a great combo. I can see design elements of a Lambo Espada in the styling, but I think Iso did an even better job with...

The new mini engine has been delivered to Bathurst, awaiting install. I need to go through the old engine and take some of the bits off and paint them up. Time has been rather short lately, and weekends are pretty busy for the foreseeable future. The weekend just been was a pop culture festival...

Congrats on the Stihl win! 🥳

Well it was a big weekend for a few reasons up our way. First of all the mini engine is finally built! It's been a long drawn out saga that's probably taken around 4 years to get to this point. The abbreviated version is the first builder took on too many jobs, got hit by a bunch of bad health...

Sounds like an awesome trip Geoff, look forward to seeing your pics when you're back.

Cheers guys. The Jeep certainly got a lot of potential to be something very cool when its done. A lot of nothing particularly noteworthy for a while around our place. The other weekend was the Sydney 4WD show, so we went along to that which was interesting to see what camping gear and whatever...

Some great looking Fords, thanks for taking the time to share the pics. What would have been your pick to take home yourself? That black Galaxie would be mine, that's all kinds of gorgeous.

Lots of work and thought behind it all as always. I dont comment on every post, but enjoy you sharing your progress. Asphalt driveway looks great!

You're assuming Geoff wasn't flying the plane... :ROFLMAO:
