Default GT with Tribal Decals in BNE???

Hi all!

I was at Chermside last night and saw a GT with these tribal decals all over it and a HUUUUGE FPV sticker that covered the entire rear windscreen. Just wondering if this is owned by a FF Member??

*looked similar to this one*

I have seen this at a Central Coast Car Show. IS very awesome. I have seen a website which shows the build up of this car. Cant remember what it is though. Think it is something to do with the business that painted it.

It was owned by Nargee, he sold it and bought a super pursuit... I saw in for sale in the Auto Trader iirc, seems a Brisbanite bought it...

Erm they arent tribal decals. All the art work is all painstakingly airbrushed. Alot of work went into that car, and it is a friggin awesome ride.
Yeah i saw his super pursuit on sunday at the tomago show and shine. Looked good with the custom stripes.

It also has a very faint FPV down both sides if you look hard and on the right angle. The GT he sold that is.

Looks great in the flesh. Pictures don't really do that car justice.

Yep, he took it on the AFF Bathurst cruise back in March.
I don't particularly like the interior, but it is VERY striking.

Always the way, Nargee builds it to be unique and someone has already copied it...

These things on the GT were definitely 'Decals' and just quietly looked terrible. I appreciate the effort gone into the car that everyone is talking about but again, dont think too highly of the design and final product. But as always, whatever floats your boat. All in all, if it has a blue oval i'll support it, but the thread was simply an attempt to see if the car was a fellow FF member.

don't know who owns the one you are talking about...

This one was owned by Maydec, now Nargee. James put alot of money, time and effort into this GT. It has a bit of subtle fpv paintwork airbrushed along the sides.

he is now the proud owner of a black super pursuit ute but will not be doing any drastic work to it apparently.

Ok yeah my mistake i misread the first post. Did the GT that you saw by any chance have a shaker. I have seen one similar to james with tribal decals, and a shaker. Cant remember what colour it was though.

Nah no shaker. It is the same colour as the above example. Its floating around the Brisbane area too so unless he likes long drives i doubt he would've been down your way :voldar02:

Out of curiosity, has anyone seen the Blue pearl XT falcon getting around Brisbane city with a fake shaker, shopping list ricer stickers, fuel cap ricer sticker, and import style shopping trolley rear wing. Not to mention a ricer exhaust and at standard height. :

Just picture it, and yes it does look like the biggest piece of crap ever and the owner should be banned from owning a ford again. Just curious to know if anyone else has been forced to witness such sheer disgrace. hehe.
