 Hi All, Well went to Sydney last Sunday to check out a new tow car. Had a price limit in mind,but blew the budget! ( You know how it is just had to have it).So will be picking her up next Monday. 1954 Pontiac is now for sale(no motor or box) as well as 1974 Matador( Good donor car). Will keep you all guessing till i get her home,but is a Ford and it is a coupe.

Made in AU or an import? If it is an Australian model based on a (USA/Canadian) variety it would have to be pre 1950 If it is an English type Ford, maybe pre 70. Then of course we have the German Ford, etc, etc. ;D Cheers, Ron |

Okay guys, If opposite is 63, Sutcac maybe on the mark ;D Australia did build an XM Hardtop in 63 and quite a few have since been modified with V8 engines. OTOH, the USA had quite a few 2 door Fords, Fairlane, Galaxie, Meteor and a beautiful Thunderbird. There are some down under, for a price. Cheers, Ron |

Ford coupe ? There has been a couple of XK coupes advertised of late ? Consul or Zephr would look good in front of a Propert!
