      I've seen at least 2 of those around here. 1 yellow and 1 purple. Both were show cars.

      Yep. For some reason ford only lets the australians get the cool cars.

      If a 71 Torino and a 71 Mustang had sex the kid would look like that.

      I like it.

      I think we should all move to Australia for that reason.

      That's not an Aussie Mustang... That's a Falcon XC. Similar to the XB Faclon used in the Road Warrior. Max's car had an aftermarket nose on it that make is more menacing. Here is a page on the Aussie Cobra.

      funny i just came back to tell you guys about that page, i'm gonna get one, but i did a search on collector car trader, and ebay, and all over the internet and there are none to be had, even on e-bay, i would see if they would ship me that one, but at 30000 it is kinda spendy, maybe i can look at some aus car dealers and get them to ship me a descent used one?????

      i want one BAD!!!!!!!!!!! it is the most beautiful thing i have ever seen

      actually, i may get the 73 torino down the street from me, an easier resto me thinks, but what about my xc falcon idea?????

      Check out that Aussie Coupes site. They will find a car and arrange shipping. Hell, they will even make a mad max clone and ship it to the US.

      I always thought those faclons were cool...

      Think thats the second time i've seen it on Ebay.

      Also Ford didn't let them have the car...their Ford came up with it...our Ford sucks. Their Ford rules.

      That's ONLY the shipping costs, Black.. The car itself is extra.


      MFP, I was under the impression that the chief designer of the X-Series was American. Put his favorite Ford bits all into one car..

      Might've been...but still...closest we got was the Tornio...and we already know the comaprisons of those two from the other forum.
