1972 XA Falcon coupe with a 302 and C4 complete with sagging sunroof and so much rust in the floor of the boot Im amazed the petrol tank never fell out.
And it also burnt 4 litres of oil every few hundred kays. Ah, the good ol' days, that was 9 years ago.

1964 Cortina - $125.00
Repairs to enable it to be registered and driven - $125.00 Total outlay for 12 months - $250.00 plus petrol and oil. Sold it for $500.00 - bald tyres, needed new springs all round, rear door catch needed repairs (kept opening unexpectedly), oh, and if the starter motor played up you either hit it with a hammer or used a spanner to turn the gear around a bit....... and there was a significant amount of piston slap in the motor..... Ahhhh......the good old days - when petrol and bananas were affordable |

1979 XD Fairmont Ghia
Dad sold it to a friend of his who is killing it. It hurts to see it in such a state whenever he comes over.
