Sh*t that's along time ago Jut a bit of history about the car. Brought it from a guy in Melbourne who had a Phase 3 GTHO. He wrote it off. Bought a good ute body shell and transplanted all the running gear into it except engine don't know what happened to that, C4 auto 9" diff.He also put all the interior items in as wellOriginal wooden stearing wheel, dash and instruments door trims and seats.Motor specs 2V Cleveland motor basically stock from factory.These are the mods that I did to the cars.Changed gearbox to toploader ,Diff 2.9 ratio4V heads & original Phase 3 Solid lift cam grind, Solid lifters ectLowered front 2" after these photo's were taken still looking for some of these.What's your thought's guy's what are some of your first Fords with grunt.
