Awesome pics, very nice machinery.
Only one car disappointed, the M3 with the great big super charged V8.
Sorry I think it ruined the car.

Favorite car from those pics, any Mustang or the XE HO, that car looked very very nice.

Holy crap...is that the XE "HO" that Street Machine built all those years ago?

Love the DeLorean time machine and the A Team van.

I will agree about the massively oversized modern rims and licorice strip tyres on old stuff...the suspension just wasn't engineers for such loading, it was designed for tyres with actual sidewalls to make up part of the "suspension".

But which one would I really like to take for a drive? Easy:
The little old flatbed airport-type truck near the top with the NOS bottle on the back. It looks like it'd be a giggle and a half...

Overall favourite from those pictures? The beautiful XP (?) wagon with the marble paint. Absolutely awesome!!

No it's not. This one makes the Street Machine 'HO 2 GO' look very conservative.

This one is the late Wayne Drapers car, ex-Ford designer and creative force behind HO Phase Auto's who designed and supplied the kits for the Group C XD/XE and Auscars and many more.

Read more about it here, it's a great story; http://www.hointerceptor.com.au/
