Yeah. It's nice. I read about that article in Performance Ford magazine ages ago. Only 10 built! If I had a car that rare, I would have left it stock.

We were involved with Mal as a sponsor from 1991-93 and I remember this car well.
She sure wasnt any ordinary Falcon thats for sure, it had lots of little things done by the factory specifically for Aust Production Car C/ship success and thats exactly what it did! Ahh, memories, Bathurst 12hr in 93'... weekend we'll never forget : |

Interesting looking at the supercharger, you could probably convince people it's just an updated air-con unit, lol!

I remember that car, but I hated the colour coding of the wheels. Too much red.

Yeah I remember that issue of PerFord. The car really struck a note with me as I read it when I first bought my EA. Doesn't do much for me these days.
