Hi all,
Just joined, I have a XLT Ranger Super Cab on order [since 26/3/12] Haven't started building it yet. Hope to be here in September. I am getting built a 8m 5th Wheeler by Travelhome at Boolaroo [Newcastle NSW]. It is due in August. I have my house up for sale at Port Macquarie NSW and when that happens I will be full time on the road. I have ordered a Ford snorkel, tinting and LED wire with it. I will be installing a 65l poly fuel tank in the tub, duel batteries, roof rack with a 110W solar panel with a Redarc BCDC1225 in-vehicle 12V 25A Multi-Stage Battery Charger, with MPPT Solar regulator. Also a roller back cover from Bluey's at West Ryde in Sydney. Travel home will instal the Ball hitch in the tub [over the rear axle]. ICOM IC400 PRO UHF under the driver's seat and mic with all controls on dash. A Roof consol from Dept of the Interior at Blakehurst in Sydney, which will hold the screen for the six camera's on the 5er and Ranger. An Engel 29l [40 year old] fridge will reside in the cab after removal of the back seat. That's it for now just waiting. PeterH

Hello all
getting 'old' and starting to get a hankering for the cars of my youth. Back when you could pick up XB coupes fors $3000 i had me few nice rides. Between 17 and 30 i had: XW GS, several XY's, 351 ZC Fairlaine, XB GS Coupe, XA Coupe, XB Sedan, XB Coupe, 73 LTD and a Pontiac. Time moved another 20 years on to little cars like a VW, Cortina, Escort, 63' Cadillac, 63 Galaxie fastback, 64 Galaxie hearse...and now building a bitsa hotrod. So here i am feeling like a nice XA Coupe again and holy $%#! have they gone up in $$ or what! Oh man o man, if only i had kept all these cars and stored them in a shed...regrets regrets LOL. I sold my last rare car to pay for the shed floor to be concreted (12x15mtr) not cheap and i now have a great floor and no car! cheers all, i will have questions... |

Hi all, new here but I'm glad to have found such a great resource!
I drive a BF MkII Fairmont GHIA, love it to bits and have always wanted one. Haven't had it long but I have lots of plans that will be done bit by bit as money permits (damn apprentice wages!). Anyway, here's a couple of pics. Cheers, Jake. Two I just took quickly   And one I spent too long on..

This is my first post. Not sure if it should be in the reply box?
I live in the Blue Mountains west of Sydney. Own a 1970 F100 pick-up, fully rebuilt/restored. It has a 351 Cleveland, gas and petrol, 4 speed manual, high ratio diff. Many quality extras. Beautiful to drive. May be looking to sell in the near future. Expressions of interest welcome. |

Pretty much the same way you posted in here, but in the section relevant to your topic.
Near the top left side of each Forum page there is a tab that says "New Thread". Click on that and away you go.
