Default New guy with old Ford

Just wanted to say G'day and show off my Fairlane

Its a ZA Fairlane 500 "Grandpa spec". It has a 289 Windsor on dual fuel which is gutless, but runs like a dream and is fantastic to drive.
She's my daily driver so only gets a bit of work done to it at a time, but eventually will be transformed from a Granddads car to a Hoons car
I had a sweet ZA Fairlane in high school so basically Im building my old car.

Although Im basically a Ford man I had some Holdens after the ZA. A HT wagon, HQ ute and a HX Sandman. Had a CM Chrysler Regal, an XR Falcon some Datto's, a Merc, some VW's...the list goes on. About twenty odd cars since I got my license 15 years agobiglol

But I started with the ZA and Im gonna finish with a ZA!

Anyway I look forward to havin a look round the site and I will catch yas later








Hopefully what the finished product will look like ;
my fairlane from high school
