Its not very often that I write on here but I spotted an ad recently for the following. I was wondering if anyone here had heard of this and what were your thoughts. I t appears to be about he History of Ford in Australia and seems to be fairly extensive. Priced at $325 and ready in Feb 2020

Does not look like it's that good to me, no depth really just brochures and badges, one that claims to be a GT badge, I think it's an old Y block Badge in fact and not a GT one at all.

I will wait till Dr Terry comes out with his Complete encyclopedia of all models, like he did with the Holdens, that is the best book you can buy for the real dedicated people who are into such cars truly in depth.

Maybe it will have to start with the XK on and stop at about the XF with one book. or the book would be too big ?

Or maybe a series of 1950's and then 1960's and so on, would sell better bring the price down so more can grab them at will.

1960's to 80's would be the most popular for sure I would think to sell.
Then do 1990's to the end.
Then do the earliest to the 1950's.
That way if done correctly it would become the Bible of Ford collections that everyone would aspire to.

Ford bigger Trucks like over the F250 size would have to be another book in it's self, most would respect that point of view I would think.

If anyone is interested I can get these for a discount price of $300 ($25 off) + freight. They are pretty heavy and the box measures 45cm x 43cm x 13cm. Let me know if are interested in one.

Not sure if this works, but there is a video link below.
