Gday Folks,
One young (well getting old now) mans tale of woe! After popping another 351 in my XE today when I was being a bit "vigorous" I figured I would have a look at ebay and see what fords were about. I figured living near the ocean now my XE is going to rust out pretty quick so I might buy another falcon to replace it rather than spend more cash on one I will get rid of soon anyway.........simple enough innit? Browising ebay and I see a photo that was taken by ME where I used to LIVE a few years back of MY old bloody XC coupe! I assumed at first someone had ripped the pics off here and was using them to scam someone as the pic had been photoshoped to look like it had red brakes. Read it and no its no scam , its my old coupe that I sold because of my misguided love for a evil woman (who is long gone) that is now in pieces (or even more pieces than I had it in) with no motor etc......just a roller pretty much. I had to tell you I had a tear in my eye. Two guys split it when they bought it , one wanted the motor to put in san XA I think it was (6/71 blown 4v stroker) and the body was supposed to be done up by the other guy who was talking retro tech stuff. I was kinda happy to think at least it was going somewhere where it would be on the road and stuff again but it wasnt to be........ http://cgi.ebay.com/XC-COUPE-For-Sal...QQcmdZViewItem I would love to buy it back but that would be pointless and it missing the big dollar bits anyway now , but I have spent many a night missing that car and wishing I had never let it go. All you young ones out there when you get something special , dont let it go!! And I dont mean women!! Im going to drink a quiet beer now and bang my head on the empty bottle.  : |
