Hi all,

Just come across this forum which has some great information on it. Just ordered a new Territory SZ Limited Edition Diesel. Previous cars include the current(soon to be ex) Territory SY TX, 1985 Telstar Ghia and the EA Falcon.

Look forward to learning more from all of you, plus sharing what i know which isn't much.

Cheers

Hello,BillyBolgart here,
I own a stock standard 2000 AU11 Fairmont and I browsed this forum through Google trying to find out what is wrong with my drivers door lock....it was very helpfull thank you.
The car I sold when I bought the Ford was a 1985 Corvette Coupe Red on Red and fully loaded with a Greg Morris conversion.

Couldent drive it back to WA from Sydney which is a bit sad,but physically it would of been too hard on my spine (the reason for being in Sydney)

I just put Polar White globes in it as the guy i bought it off rewired it to take high/low beam globes and they were 100 watters (you got to be kidding me)
and when i drove it home from Horsley Park to Smithfield it just smoked from under the bonnet??
fixed it and drove straight across the Nullabor,sat on 109 klms all the way and averaged 9.3 litres per 100 klms (impressive)

Put nearly 35,000 klms in 12 months and for a car that cost $1700 bucks plus $300 to rewire the lights and fit Polar Whites methinks i got a good deal!!!!!

I wish i still had the Vette but thats life.
And if anyone is fond of XW GTHO's well in 1969 I was an apprentice motor mechanic for Peter Warren Ford Fairfield and every car that had a PD done to it was taken out for a road test to Smithfield tip,which was next to where the RSL is and the mechanics used to let us apprentices flog em,what a buzz,dident even have a licence.Good fun.

Regards BB

[EXEAGLE]

Hi,
First time poster. I'm an ex FoMoCo employee of the Brisbane Assembly plant and noticed a few members were expressing an interest in the old factory before it's demolished very shortly.
I was at the factory in it's final years building Louisville and Trader series trucks. It's a very intersting building full of history and I think I had been everywhere in that building. I visited the factory on friday just gone and was horrified at what I saw. I only saw a very small part of it unfortuately. Last time I was there it was a fully operational factory, now it's in I would call moderate to advanced decay.
I would love to have a walk all the way through and I can tell you what was where and what was done there.
There was photographs in archive which showed the factory before it's upgrade / expansion in the 60's for Falcon which were interesting.
I have pictures of the Aeromax 120 we built for Dick Johnson back in the day. Phew - memroy lane!.
Anyways would be good to go there before it's gone andwill keep an eye on this forum if anything happens.
Oh, I drove Cortinas, Falcons, Fairmont Ghias, XR6's and 8's but sadly no longer. Cheers!

[AaronWalton]

Hey my names Aaron new to the forum. I am 16 years old and have currently purchased a 2004 ba falcon xr6 with premium sound and sunroof. I'm positive I will learn a lot I things in this forum as I am looking at doing a few mods in the future. Thanks.

Would love to hear everyone's thoughts and any guidance as I go along.

Cheers
Steve

Hi All.

Well I am finally back into a FORD

I have been a FORD fan all my life, starting with my first car a TC Cortina, then an XB V8 Fairmont coupe, then an XB GT, then a sensible family car while the kids grew up.

After that it was a NEW EA wagon (again expanding family) then an EL Fairmont and a Discovery for a while (to play 4X4) and now I pickup an FG XR6 on Monday.

I wish I still had the GT !!!!!
