I've never seen one but have heard they exist too, There were always the odd special order available to those with the right contacts inside Ford. I've seen a factory produced four speed manual ZD Fairlane and been told about an XF Falcon that emerged from the Broadmeadows factory with a...

Ford heaven. Since I don't have a truck anymore, I'll have the Mainline ute. For our US readers, this is basically a '56 Crown Vic based Ranchero. They came to this country as CKD (completely knocked down) kits from Canada which, as another British Commonwealth country, avoided some hefty import...

OK, I follow that now. Completely different down here in Oz. I'll talk about the process in the state of Victoria where I am but I don't think its significantly different in other states and territories. Contract and a bunch of other documentation is actually prepared, usually by the vendor's...

So what's to stop the vendor from selling it to someone else who is prepared to sign a contract? Maybe it's a buyer's market over there but any prospective buyer here using that scattergun approach would lose them all and forfeit any deposit in most cases. Just wouldn't happen here.

Certainly a lesson there. When I clicked on the link to the product you provided my security app blocked it. That would be enough for me.

Down here, well in Victoria where I am at least, there's no walking away. Contract becomes final and locked in 3 days after signing for a private sale or immediately if it's an auction. What we call the settlement period while the legal and technical stuff about transferring the land title is...

Aren't those washers a pain?

The driveway looks good. Any concerns about it melting when it gets real hot up there?

Are those exhaust valves Varex items? I'm considering some of their mufflers.

I don't know much about small engines but very nice work.

That sure is a lot of work.

Whaddaya mean if I had a Holden? As if!

How 'bout that! We lived there from mid '85 until the end of '89. My second child was born in Canberra. We rented a place in Dryandra Street opposite Black Mountain reserve which was pretty nice.

As much as dive bombing a GM product is an attractive proposition, I'd probably draw the line at a kamikaze mission that might include my garage in the collateral damage.

Great progress. Sifting all that spoil must have been a mission.

Shucks.

It's the first thing I would do.

Nah, they'd be too hard for me.
