If it ever goes bang that will be the first thing I do. Either that or put Mick's Vortech on it.

Congrats Mate

Bloody great looking car.

I looked at buying a AUXR8 (black of course) about a month ago but settled on the Ghia, (must be an age thing) it's only a six, but at least it's a Tickford

It's had a few mods (more to come)

So as Mick has suggested mod, mod, mod.

p.s. a few pics of the beast.

Gary apart from the altezza styke lights........thats is a HAWT looking car well done mate

I had a tickford fairlane when i was younger,regency red,lowered, polished tickfors 17"'s and dark tint. Was a total pimp wagon :o

Very nice. I learnt to drive in a au xr8 I loved it. As far as handling I recon it would of run rings around my t & had enough go at the time to get me in trouble. Id love to get into one that's got some serious boost screwed into it. I loved the noise that used to come out of it when you were giving it hell.

Now, now Mick, we dont all need a 960hp pen*s extension do we?

[ms700]

While we are on the topic of said pen*s extensions.....

The XC just took out Top Engineered Post '73 for Street Fords Magazine COTY awards!

not bad for a rusty ol girl now, is it?

In all seriousnes Mick well done. That thing is a total animal & I wish it was in my garage.

My first car was a 4.9 XC GS Rally Pack. I've got a real soft spot for 'em.
