This is one active thread for a "Local Section" thread... I'm impressed.
If you guys are "Down Under", are we "Up Over"?
Just to add to Peter's response -Gooday, we are down under. The Mustangs are very popular here, no competition really and the only new v8 that you can buy in a manual other than a Toyota diesel 4 X 4.

Well, to be factually correct, Ford Australia invented the concept of a El Camino with the 1934 Ford Coupe Utility, or Ute for short.I think these are awesome - kind of like a modern El Camino ...

Unfortunately Ford never made an XR8 Sprint ute so this is the one you want, 410kw LSA:I think these are awesome - kind of like a modern El Camino ...

Indeed but thankfully there was always an acute awareness. IIRC the XR GT ('67?) was marketed as being ''Mustang bred'.Australia never really had access to Mustang's, Camaro's, Corvette's or Challangers outside of private imports.
Can't quite warm to these things racing in the V8SC Supports, lowered with a Coyote engine or not.nowadays it is nearly exclusively 4WD utes like the ranger or hi-lux.
Love this commercial.............Indeed but thankfully there was always an acute awareness. IIRC the XR GT ('67?) was marketed as being ''Mustang bred'.
Oh that's gold, not one I'd seen before. Amazing to think Ford was confident marketing a local car through the use of heavy references to a model not even sold here but such is the ubiquitous appeal of the Mustang I guessMore, more MUSTANG!
The reason these Ozzy cars are no longer available is because the Australian public deserted them and bought other brands.While we may all lament the sale and ready availability in Australia over the years of the Ford Mustang, we have had the equal, if not better, in the muscle car V8 versions of the Ford Falcon and the Holden Commodore/Torana. These cars were the equal of anything produced by Ford USA and GM USA. Sadly, local design and manufacture of of these vehicles has now passed into history. Australia once had it all with locally designed and manufactured V8 Muscle Cars. As a wise man once said, "It's better to have had it once then to have never had it at all."
