Thanks for the pics Ratman, awesome.

That silver XP ute has one of the best engine bays i've ever seen, so neat.

And that yellow XB coupe's engine is weapons grade with those 2 massive turbos.

Yep that XP ute's bay is unreal. The Orange Mustang has captured me. Is there any more pics of the Fairlane with the TT5.0? Never seen it before. The ratted XE is pretty sweet too.

Im in love with the Thunderbolt Gasser!
